M51, One more, only rgb

[GiorgioF]

Here after long time with a subject everyone has catch at least once.

The Whirpool galaxy, under heavy polluted sky.

Born as a test with my new eq6-r and my gso 150/750, 3 hours of light by my canon 450d modded and a LPS idas p2.

I'm quite satisfy about, especially because the color balance was done by tiziana, my eyes on this.

Would like to add some luminance as soon as the weather become clear.

C&C are always welcome.

Clear sky!

It looks like you've got good colour data. I'd crop the image to get rid of the glow in the top right and bottom left of the image.

Ouch...  My bad, it was a crop I should make but forget...

Here the crop.

You should be pleased with that - nicely processed.

Lovely image, much better with the crop.
