That is just spectacular. One of the nicest galaxy images I have seen for ages. At first I thought it was a slighty unusual shot of M81.

What great framing as well.

I can't believe how tiny your stars are. Tracking is perfect, galaxy is super sharp. I personally like the rich colours in the galaxy but it will be perhaps a bit too blue for some.

How come the stars are so pinpoint? Did you use an AO?

Was the seeing exceptional?

I know the Meade ACF is a good imaging machine but still I haven't seen stars that pinpoint before from one.

Greg.
