Description

Picture taken from Grandpré, my favorite Dark Sky location at a three hour drive, with nice dark skies between SQM 21,20 and 21,50.  i was joined by a dedicated group of visual observers and also this mighty galaxy was observed in all it's details through the 16"-20" Dobsonians. The long integration time and darks skies payed off.
