I added more exposure to the Boogeyman Nebula (LDN 1622). I'd like to
get even more if it works out, but this is looking pretty good.
Far and away the best image I've taken of M101, the Pinwheel Galaxy. This is a
large but faint galaxy in the handle of the Big Dipper. M101 has a
diameter of ~170,000 light-years. It has around a trillion stars (twice the number
in the Milky Way) and is about 20 million light years distant.
