Description

Prominent Bodes Galaxy M81 with satellite dwarf irregular galaxy Holmberg IX, additional dwarf galaxy PGC28731 on the top and NGC3077 galaxy on the right side of the picture.

On the right side of the picture is an another smaller galaxy NGC3077 wich probably splitted apart in interaction with the bigger galaxies close to it.

The dimmed blue dwarf galaxy direct on right side of M81 Holmerberg IX explained first time by swedish astronomer Erik Holmberg.

M81 was discovered by Johann Elert Bode on 31 December 1774 and have a distance of almost 12 million light years from my time of astro-photosession 2--24feb 2020, Gothenburg

Tecs:

8" Orion Astrograph, Canon eos 200Da 60% with Optolong L-Pro and 40% with UHC clip-in filter. Mount SW eq6-pro with Lacerta Mgen2 guider. Approx 20% of the exposings was made with 6400iso, the rest 3200iso and 10% of1600iso mixed.

The higher 6400iso exposings was integrated with Bayer Drizzle with reason of overexposing of details. The seeing was bad in periodes with dizzy atmosphere. It was difficult to callibrate it out completely. Littlebit corn is still on

Hard work and you all know what it mean :-)
