Description

M106 is very well known and exhibited by the Astrobin community with splendid examples. As I am still waiting for my new 533 mm camera, I gave it a try to image this beautiful galaxy with my Fuji XT30. Of course an uncooled Bayer matrix is not the optimal condition to do justice to this target. Nevertheless, more than 3 hours of exposure resulted in a fair picture even if some might not like the outcome. For sure no fancy Ha regions, no crispy details with my C6 could be realized but at least I could get some picture of it during a very good spring night.
All the best,
Andreas
