NGC 247 is an Intermediate spiral galaxy (although it's sometimes classified
as a Dwarf spiral galaxy) about 11.1 million light-years away in the constellation Cetus.
It is very close in the sky to the Sculptor
galaxy
Being at a low -20°46', it is quite impossible to get a sharp image at my
latitude.
