These are galaxies that I think are the most interesting. I got them as background photos on my phone and computers. It’s best to view them by clicking on each image so that it’s zoomed. You can then see intricate and intriguing details that will make you fall in love with The Universe. The best parts are some shadows from dust that are visible best in the galaxies that are shown from the side like the last one.
