Description

This month has been quite generous so far with some clear nights. Even if the seening was not so great I can't complain, the most important is to go out and do the best of what you get :-)

I chose this two nice galaxies as object cause I never imaged them before and cause they were in the right position at the right moment in the sky :-)

As usual it has been hard to remove light pollution and the background maybe isn't so great, but it is a nice view of an object located about 25 million light years from my scope :-)

Ps. the image is only 26,5 MB PNG . For some reason Photoshop did only save an 82MB TIF to just 26,5MB PNG . I tried with Pixinsight, but same there.

It seems to be good anyway (at least if viewed on my phone).
