Description

This is a tough one for me, probably for all, but some of the images I have seen here on Astrobin are fantastic. Maybe it is the Florida light pollution that interferes with me. I gave mostly up on an RGB image of M101, but I like it so much that I tried to get some narrow band images together and well, for sure not a master piece, but at least an image that I can work on. I have some F/2 Baader Hα data still to be processed, let's see if those will help.

Red = Hα; Blue = OIII; Green = 50/50 Hα/OIII. Some color corrections were needed since the final image turned out to be too Red/greenish.
