Description

Another attempt at M51 with waxing gibbous moon in the sky. The image is not great with lots of blotchy background. But given the quality of subs, it is a good marker to see if I can improve with newer attempts.

Update: I reprocessed the data after learning Pixinsight more and the revision is now up.

Version C: One more reprocessing run of mediocre subs. This along with the M81/M82 are my first serious AP attempts.
