If you want to let us in on some of the processing, I for one would be really intrerested to get a glimpse into the kind of work that goes into creating such a pearler!

I add my name to the standing ovation Martin, one of the best M51 ever seen, period.

Everything about this image is just perfect, from the colour of the galaxy to the equisite resolution of all the tiny galaxies in the background.

Stunning rendition Martin. I've seen some great images of this object but this one has definition I've not seen before. Must have been some clear skies that night
