Previous images of NGC 6744

NGC 6744 is a beautiful and quite large but delicate spiral galaxy in Pavo, it isn't imaged that
much and requires long exposures to reveal it properly. The long extended arm drifting below the
galaxy is somehat unique and the field is full of very faint Milky Way dust too.
