M61

I took a few images of M61 the night before last - 2 at 10 minutes, one at 5 minutes. I summed them together and applied a little deconvolution to sharpen it up. This was when the collimatino on the remote scope was starting to go out, I think, but it still sharpens up really well with 25 minutes of exposure. Too bad I didn't get some color.

Very nice Ron!
The spiral arms & core detail are well defined!
The nice FOV on this shot also allow us to see several other galaxies as well.... great!


Thanks for sharing!

Ron:

Looks like you caught something moving real slow near the bottom of the frame just right of center.
