Hi all,

I have had some data sitting on the lightbuckets.com server for a while and I have managed to get around to processing it :P

I give you M101, taken on the Lightbuckets LB0002 System.

Exposure was a total of 405 minutes at f3.6

Cheers for viewing :D

Ben

Ben, very impressive image.
And more impressive for another reason ...
Did you image it from Perth?
M101 has a declination of a little above 54 degs North and Perth is about 32 degs South, which would put the galaxy at just over 4 degs above horizon.
Nice indeed!

Regards, Rob.

Hi Rob,

I wish it was imaged from Perth :D It was taken using the lightbuckets facility at Rodeo, New Mexico ;)

I used LB0002 for that image :)
