M81, M82. Bode's Galaxy and the Cigar Galaxy
Photo description / processing
The processing was very challenging and intense—at times, I had to start over from scratch ten times in a row. The dark bands at the bottom of the frame are glare from a streetlight, which I removed in Photoshop. I hope the result does it justice.
