NGC 2835
From time to time I obtain data sets from remote observatories. One of my favorite providers is Telescope Live with telescopes in e.g. Chile, Australia and Spain. One of the data sets I received, was data from the galaxy NGC 2835, located in the constellation Hydra.

The images were taken with the following equipment (Telescope Live CHI-1):
| Location | El Sauce Observatory, Chile |
| Telescope | Planwave CDK24 |
| Focal length [mm] | 3900 |
| Focal ratio | 6.5 |
| Mount | Mathis MI-1000/1250 |
| Camera | FLI Proline 9000 |
| Filter | L:R:G:B |
| Exposure time [min] | 200:200:200:200 |
| Resolution | 0.62″/px |
Data calibration and registration and the final processing was done with PixInsight. The result was as follows:
In the field were some quasars (see annotation). The two most distant of them are:
MQ J091732.72-222046.9 with a redshift of 2.3 and an apparent magB of 20.76 (2017,PASA,34,25).
MQ J091834.98-222005.3 with a redshift of 1.2 and an apparent magB of 19.44 (2017,PASA,34,25).
