Description

Messier 106 and friends:

Taken with Planewave CDK12.5, Apogee U16M, atop Celestron CGE Pro.

Guiding with Metaguide.

This is 17 hours of data across 6 nights in May. 20 minute subs.

I always have a reflection in the same corner with this target. I spent a little time trying to figure out the source (and removed some reflecting surfaces) but was not successful.

I did a little bit of hand editing to remove a brighter spot of the reflection near the upper-right part of M106.
