NGC 4565 – Galaxy of the Needle – spiral galaxy, seen in profile. Made Bonilla-Cuenca (Spain), on May 19, 2012.
Hello, for me this object is most beautiful galaxies in the sky. Their symmetry and uniform brightness I like.
Sketch done with pencil and processed with Gimp II.
Greetings to all and congratulations on the website.

Good work with the galaxy – I like the subtle dustband.
As I also process my sketches with Gimp2, I have a hint for you depending the stars. After removing I replace them with the brush-tool with the soft edge. You can have a look here -> http://www.asod.info/?p=6639
Kind regards

Very grateful for the advice. I’ll remember that for next sketch.
The star field of M27 is magnificent.
Greetings.

Thank you, glad you liked it. Next time I will also try to concentrate on the colours of the stars to recolour them in Gimp.
