. This picture of spiral galaxy NGC 3621 was taken using the Wide Field Imager at ESOтАЩs La Silla Observatory in Chile. NGC 3621 is about 22 million light-years away. It is comparatively bright and can be well seen in moderate-sized telescopes. The data from the Wide Field Imager on the MPG/ESO 2.2-meter telescope used to make this image was selected from the ESO archive by Joe DePasquale as part of the Hidden Treasures competition.
