The Mice7 viewsBelieved to be similar to what will happen to us when the Andromeda Galaxy and the Milky Way collide. These two galaxies have already had one pass through each other, which has produced the long streamers or tails - hence their common name. David R.Jul 12, 2020

Spiral Galaxy, M10627 viewsM106 (NGC 4258) is one of the largest and brightest nearby galaxies very similar in actual size and luminosity to the Andromeda Galaxy. It is most famous for the presence of a water megamaser. The galaxy to its right is NGC 4217, a likely companion. David R.Jun 21, 2020

M 5 Globular cluster45 viewsM 5 in Serpens constellation has a diameter roughly 165 L Y
I kept the exposures short due to tracking problems.

M51 - apologies53 viewsSorry for yet another image of M51 but I wanted to test whether it would be better without light pollution filters. The resulting light pollution in the images was trickier to remove but the colours were much more realistic. David R.Jun 01, 2020

Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 290340 viewsA barred spiral galaxy thought to be similar to our Milky Way but with one strange difference. It is still forming new globular clusters. The Milky Way's globular clusters, on the other hand, are some of the oldest objects in our galaxy. David R.May 22, 2020

M 97 Owl nebula50 viewsLying Approx. 2030 light years away in Ursa Major, M 97 is a planetary about 8000 years old. I processed mono files using 6 nm Ha and o111 filters and added some older frames from a DSLR

M51 Whirlpool Galaxy65 viewsI took this from Abbey Village on 24/04/2020. I took 50x 20sec images using only my SONY NEX5 compact camera mounted on my 70MM Starwave refractor, on a GOTO mount. No filter, no Bahtinov mask. Carl did the processing for me. I'm very pleased with the result. especially given my budget equipment and limited imaging experience! May 03, 2020

Contrasting Clusters62 viewsContrasting clusters. They look side by side but the smaller cluster, NGC 2158 lower right, is four times more distant than M35 and over 10 times older. David R.Apr 21, 2020

Spiral Galaxy NGC 240363 viewsI first saw this relatively bright galaxy with my homemade 6 inch Newtonian over 55 years ago ... but there was much less light pollution in those days. It is an outlying member of the M81 Group and is round 8 million light-years distant. David R.Apr 11, 2020

Whirlpool Galaxy92 viewsM 51 Whirlpool Galaxy is in the constellation Canes Venatici Approx. 23 million L Y distant and spanning 76000 L Y. Interacting with Galaxy NGC 5195
Imaged with EOS 200D. No filter used. 45 x 120 sec. and Atik 383L Mono 13 x 600 sec. for luminance.
