Description

I feel nostalgia on my old Canon, so I decided to test it with the new triplet. I targeted M51 but considering short focal length of the scope the galaxy is very small. So I cropped it without any hope... The result is better than expected, with 48 minutes of exposition time only the galaxy looks not so bad despite the lack of red color (my Canon is not modified and not-cooled).
