Description

I always wanted to do M101 (My earlier attempts never turned out wheel. I tried with Tak E130D as well AT8RC and it was never the way I wanted). This time I switched to M101 after M66 runs for few nights and got decent signal. It still had lots of strong LP and I probably could get more subs when moon is down but Pixinsight's DBE did a good enough clean and I am happy with the result.
