M65 & m66

[Maurice]

Hi

Inspired by John K's great effort with this duo from Heathcote, here is an image of M65 and M66 taken from Melbourne.

4.5 hours total exposure through a GSO RC14 + ASI 2600MC camera on an EQ8 mount.
Processed with APP.

The duo just fit in the field of view of my camera at 2850mm FL...

Small version attached here; better one at:

Not nearly as deep as John's...but not bad given that this group never gets above 39 degrees altitude from here.

Cheers
Maurice

Stunning shot Maurice! Very detailed and delicately presented. My personal opinion…I actually quite like the fact you haven’t pushed the saturation too high giving a more natural appearance.
