Description

Don't want to bore anyone with the 1 millionth "M 101 with SN" image , it's just for me, "for the records", to have this event captured before it's gone.

Only 2 hours of exposure in a "white night" here at 50 deg N (currently, the sun here reaches only 16 deg below north horizon these days… ), so the image is not very deep or special in any way. But it was fun to use the 10" Newtonian again after a longer pause!
