Description: So called V-shaped GPs hosting broad-line AGNs (BLGPs) from Lin et al. 2024. These are thought to be local examples of "little red dots" discovered with JWST in the distant universe. I used SDSS navigation and exploration tools to download FITS-files, which I then used to create images with SAO Image DS9 and Photoshop Elements. Values of the 7 V-shaped BLGPs are from table 1 and table 2 of Lin et al. Filters: g, r, i Image Credit: SDSS DR18
