M97 The Owl Nebula

[Roy Foreman]

Conditions were not that great, with skies becoming increasingly hazy, but I managed 60 minutes of integration before the clouds rolled in.

Weather is so continuously bad these days that I have to make the most of whatever small opportunities nature deems fit to hand out, as I expect many of us do !

Better result than my one and only previous effort on this target.

Love this. I managed my first image over the weekend. A really interesting target.

Thanks Matt. Deep sky imaging has become even more of a challenge over the last few years. Very frustrating. Glad you like the image.
