Description

A widefield capture of M81/M82 and the surrounding area with the integrated flux nebula, also capturing the supernova that occurred at the time in M82. Can't say i'm entirely happy with the stars just yet, having a little trouble controlling the size of the larger ones but after many frustrating hours playing around with star masks and pixel math i need a break.
