Default M51 wide field

Here's a different view of an old favorite. My focal legnth is must shorter than most, so it provides a "panoramic" view. Interesting how M51 just appears to be hanging in space.

Tom, that really is a very nice wide field.....really nice detail in the galaxy even though it is such a short FL.......I was considering an ASA at one time.....it looks like it is working pretty good for you.

Thanks, Bud. The ASA seems to be working fine.
