Hi all,

It's been a while since I've had anything to post, but I've been working on these two. M81 looks ok to me, M53 was shot when the moon was nearby. Making some progress.

Very nice images Paul. I'm glad to see you are getting some time for deep sky stuff.
Cheers,
Tyler

These look pretty good Paul, I liked the M81, M53 was washed out by the Moon a bit as you know.
