Description

My 4th try at an astrophoto, here is M81 and M82, along with NGC 2976 and NGC 3077 (Garland Galaxy)

Taken with a Nikon D7500 and the 18-140mm kit lens at F5.6, 1600ISO

Each image is a 75 second exposure and this is a stack of 123 images.

Moon was bright along with Bortle 7 skies makes for poor imaging, surprised I was able to capture what I did.
