Description

I think like me, you're a little tired of my lunar images..

I was pleased to try to process the raw data of this beautiful galaxy M 81.

I thank once again Jim Misti who allows me to understand the emotion and joy of all those who can make such images of the deep sky.

Image acquisition by Jim Misti.

Ritchey-Chretien 32“ telescope

Camera SBIG STL 1100 CCD

4x5 mn RGB

20/01/05

I used channel B to create a luminance image that I merged with the RGB components using PhotoShop.
