M101 -- The Pinwheel Galaxy623 viewsM101 / NGC 5457, the Pinwheel Galaxy, a spiral galaxy in Ursa Major. Data acquired and reduced in Maxim DL, aligned and stacked in CCDStack 2, processed in PixInsight, and finished in Photoshop. There is some optical aberration, I think from the focal reducer, that distorts the stars, particularly at the top of the frame.

M45 -- The Pleadies619 viewsM45 - The Pleadies, Maxim DL, Photoshop. This was a particularly difficult image and I am not fully satisfied with the result. The problem is blooms and the great contrast between dark and light. The blooms lead to the small "X" on each bright star.
