Description

A closer look at M81, a large spiral galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major. Using a planetary camera, with a small sensor and tiny pixels, I was able to get closer than ever on this galaxy and capture some nice details, otherwise only possible with high magnification telescopes that I don’t have😅

More galaxies to come with this combo!
