M83 Bintel image of the month April

I’m not a member of Astrobin just IIS , so from time to time I post my images on Bintel’s customer image section
I was surprised they chose my M83 as the winner for April
I think there’s a lot of customer images better than my M83 but I will humbly accept the award and bragging rights

I suppose it’s not bad for an old DSLR and a $450 newt

Cheers

Martin, I trust that you saw my initial response to your post, and further trust
that you realised that my second response was a bit of fun[as demonstrated by the emoticons].
