Finally got some clear skies! Feels like it's been months since I last imaged.

I need to get an RC Telescope one of these days specifically for galaxy season...
Here is M101: The Pinwheel Galaxy. A 2-night venture of getting a color image and an image trying to get Hydrogen-Alpha wavelength (mainly for nebulae) to enhance your image from all the previous years. You can't really see it in the original, but the 1:1 you can notice the spots of red/magenta that signify the nebulae in a whole different galaxy. How insane is that? 21 million light-years away, and able to capture the light from nebulae from another galaxy. Another reason why this hobby will never get old for me. There's always new discoveries and new things to try when imaging the cosmos.
A plus, though, when doing wide field imaging is being able to see other more distant galaxies. A hobbyist astronomer, from their backyard, able to image galaxies millions of light-years from Earth. Mind blowing.
