M101 Pinwheel Galaxy with Supernova SN 2023ixf. Taken on Friday night 27th May around midnight. 

Setup: skywatcher 150p with Canon 600d at prime focus. Mix of lights - 24x45s subs, 3x60s and 35x40s. 20 flats. EQ3-2 with RA clock drive.

Dithering by hand! I experimented with most performing random dithering in RA and Dec using the slow motion control for Dec and the hand controller for RA with eyeball via finderscope. Worked out pretty well as the noise seems significantly improved compared to my previous attempts.
