Hi guys I've put the image into a jpeg. M106 is just over 23 million light years away and is 135000 ly across which makes it larger than our own galaxy.
​​​​​​Taken over many nights.

Thanks guys

That's really superb Neil, very well done. And you got NGC 4248 and I think 4258 also. Excellent.

Superb images, Neil!
And as Finbarr has pointed out there are some extra galaxies also.
I love those spiral arms of M106.
I've just checked: M106 is located in Canes Venatici.

Clear skies from Aubrey.

P'S. it's great that this website is still going!
Long may it continue.

Thanks guys/gals. Sorry I didnt respond earlier, but my laptop broke. I only just got it back..
I am focused on M33 now. I am going to see how many hours I can get before the signal to noise stops detail from happening. Sorry in the pub after work so I am tying as people bump off me!

Thanks guys.

Neil.
