M51 extreme closeup from original wide field Rebel shot
this is M51 extreme closeup from my original wide field Rebel shot,
so you can see all the details and the resolution of this 5" scope and Rebel combo.
I processed it right to the core...I tried to get Einsteins Cross at the center of 51, but at this size scope that was asking way to much!
Thanks for looking!

Very nice
Wow, that's nice! It's neat to see the little background galaxies. For some reason we're seeing a lot of early shots of M51 this year, I'm on the verge of going after M81/82, you guys must be staying up late.
Great time of year to do it though, nice'n cold.
Have fun!

============================================
If 50 years of amateur astronomy and space exploration has taught me anything it is that the Earth is a very special place. It would be nice to protect it like it’s the only Earth we’re ever going to have.
Up until morning!!
Hi John,
yes your right its cold and late.
When its clear we usually stay at JBSPO until morning!
By the way nice M1 with your DSI pro!
best regards,
