A made an attempt to capture spiral galaxy NGC-7640 in Andromeda. I found that It's low surface brightness makes it difficult to image with a nearly full Moon. There appears to be evidence of title tails near the ends of the galaxy arms. Perhaps it was involved in a galxay merger in the past. It is about 29mly from us. I combined about 10 hours of HaLRGB images. Ha - 20 min subs / LRGB - 10 min subs.
