Messier 82

Here is my "final" Messier 82 image for the year. I didn't collect the h-alpha data I wanted, but I am happy with the way the color came out in the project.

 

It's nice to upload my images here on Flickr for reference. It's a handy way to get an overview of my imaging timeline, and the details used for each shot.

 

So, sorry for sharing another Cigar Galaxy image!! That's it for a while :)
