Description

Here's M81 M82 that I took 12/30/15. It was taken with my Orion ED80 doublet, .8X reducer, AVX mount, SSAG autoguider. T3 camera that has been baader modified. This is about 20 subs, 180 seconds long each, ISO 800. Combined with darks, flats and bias frames in Pixinsight. I had a horrible upper edge where the flats over-corrected so I had to chop off the top of the picture to get rid of the gradient.
