Description

The RC8 is on the bench waiting for collimation and OAG so this is the AT130 /asi533.
The deeper I got into the integrated image the more I realized the complexity of M63, and not just the busy core area. There is a lot going on with this little galaxy including glowing nebulosity, IFN and a wide variety of star sizes and magnitude's.
