M 81

[stargazer]

hi guys,

I have gotten featured at Universe Today with one of my recent images.
Also Karel Teuwen's image has been chosen for the overview.
Just another great collaboration so to say.

the close up on M81 was taken with my belvoed 9" TMB Apo at f/7 using a televue reducer; collecting 8.5 hours of total exposure time.
please find all data and images here:
Stargazer - A Private Observatory In The Heart Of Europe

here is the story by Tammy Plottner where you will also find Karel's gorgeous image (again):

Hi Diets,

That's a gorgeous image....I was just thinking about sending you an email and seeing what you've been up to......this is a very nice answer to that question.

If I only had an ounce of your talent...

Very nice work, Dietmar. As always.

Superb!!
Now, if I were going to glue an image on the inside of my DOB, opposite the eyepiece holder, this would be the one I'd want!
