Arp 87 is a pair of two colliding galaxies, NGC 3808A and NGC 3808B. Located about 330 million light years away in the constellation Leo, they are a spiral galaxy and elliptical galaxy that are strongly interacting to the point of distortion. What a light show for the locals!
Using both ESA/ESO/NASA provided software and Photoshop I processed four b&w Hubble Telescope images (courtesy NASA and MAST) captured with wide-band filters at 450nm, 555nm, 814nm and one narrow-band 656nm.
