Hi Group!
Just wanted to share with you my last wide field image of M51 with the SC3.2 B&W.
Image was acquired in two consecutive nigths Sunday and Monday.
I used 102 x 60s frames in an attempt to overcome heavy noise due to strong LP in my backyard.
The scope used is my little 80mm f/5 chinese refractor a.k.a. Kakahasy ;-)
soft used: K3CCD (capture), Registax(stack and dark substraction), Loreal ("Mickey-ears" remover), PSP(levels et al.)
cheers
antonio
