Description

M106 and friends.

I was out trying my new mount and only had a short time to do any kind of imaging.

This is M106 at 60 Seconds with only 10 stacks.

This was shot at only 24 degrees from the NE horizon through a lot of humidity and severe light pollution.

Even thouh this is a bad image it does represent the capability of this combination of equipment on a good night.

I am especially happy to see all the galaxies that show up in the meager imaging and stacks.

Pixel peeping though terrible does show a few galaxies.
