Excellent shot Dietmar!
Beautiful detail & colors!

I see a round nebulosity right under M81, is it a faint Galaxy? (first time I see this object)...

Thanks for sharing!

Wow! No matter how good the seeing, it's the talents of the imager to bring out the beautiful details in that image!

Wonderful!
