The lost galaxy of Copeland NGC 4535 and the Hairy Eyebrow galaxy NGC 4526.

Two hours worth of 5 minute exposures were captured of the Lost galaxy of Copeland region of Virgo centered on the star HD109270 with AstroDMx Capture through a William Optics 81 mm ED APO refractor with an Altair Hypercam 533C 14 bit OSC CMOS camera and an Altair quadband filter.

The data were debayered, calibrated, stacked and part processed in PixInsight. Further processing was done in GraXpert, Cosmic Clarity Suite and the Gimp 2.10.
