The Pinwheel Galaxy

The Pinwheel Galaxy

I had two consecutive clear nights, something that didn’t happen since last summer. Managed to get 4 hours on M101 but my image suffered some weird streaks in one of the corners, below is the cropped image which turned out still very good.

Next on I got 2 hours on the Crescent, which was on my target list for this year. Additionaly I did a bit of EAA on the Owl Nebula and Hercules Globular cluster. Finally I also captured 2 hours on the Iris Nebula but I quickly discovered during post processing that I should have removed my duoband filter.

With our galactic plane becoming more prominent again I think my next big target will be the Eagle Nebula.
