M81/M82 with IFN

[mackiedlm]

This was my first effort to capture the IFN around M81 and M82.

Its 7 hours with the SW 80Ed and the ASI2600mc

That's rather lovely, well done. Nice collection below That I have never captured due to my focal length of 800mm. I have a reducer on the way which will drop the F/L a fair amount so may well have a go at this again.

Thank you. The map says Bortle 4 but there is a nasty old sodium streetlight just on my north perimeter. Hence the L-Pro.
