Whirlpool galaxy 16 minutes
Im going to start imagining galaxy M106 but its peaks at 10:25pm it get dark at 9:45pm here. So I decided since I havent had hardly any chances to get the scope out for a long time I decided to image a random object using 30s exposures with a high ISO (6000) while im waiting intill m106 gets into the west meridian. I chhose 51 whirlpool galaxy and for just 33×30s 16 minutes I didnt think it turned out too bad just a horrible background due to high ISO no calibration, dark, or bias.
Taken with a 16 year old Unmodified Canon 60d through an Orion 8” newtonian astrograph with coma correcter, all on a 11 year old Celestron AVX mount.
Processing: Siril for regester, stacking.
Pixlinsight: Background ext, noisexterminator, blur terminator, histogram stretch, added mask curves saturations,
Photoshop: selective color adjustments, color balance highlight some green and magenta, shadows and highlights, levels
