Description

Good weather finally came with waxing gibbous Moon This M51 image is a result of a fun/test project over three moonlit nights. It is not very deep, but I've tried to reveal details in the core of galaxy. Revision C is a comparison with a Hubble Space Telescope image of M51.

Thanks,

Vitali.
