hi!

this famous lion`s galaxy as part of the even more famous triplett fascinates each time I observe it visually:
its conelike "ears" look terrific in the bino-adapter and one can detect some details within the dustlane.
this time it was time to capture it:

seeing was really good last night, but transparency was not as good as the nights before...

Hi Dietmar,
I have always liked this galaxy and your image of it is just terrific!Awesome detail in the dust lane and lots of other interesting faint fuzzies too smile

I am set up right now to try and collect some RGB on this to add to the luminance I shot a few weeks ago,not looking good though,the clouds just don't want to part for me :C
