Description

On my last visit to La Palma in March 23 I stayed again at ATHOS Centro Astronomico. I took this astro photo series with a Vixen 200/800 Newton R200SS and QHY 600 C Pro camera on a 10micron  GM 1000 mount. Impressive to see all the blue star formation regions in M 51 formed by gravitational interaction with the small neighbor galaxy NGC 5195!
