M51 whirlpool

[lnlarxg]

Last of the few targets i shot with the canon550d-modded back in Mar/Apr.  although have now moved onto a cooled OSC, I still won’t part with my modded DSLR, they are still great in my humble opinion 

24x180s exposures on SW250F4

Indeed a fine image with to my eye a fine colour balance.

Great image of the whirlpool, lots of detail in those spiral arms.

That should be M51.

Funny isn’t it, that image had around 70 views before you pointed out that it is in fact M51.  Yep, nothing gets past us experts 😂

Fantastic job with the modded 550D, nicely processed as well.
