Spiral Galaxies
M51 Whirlpool Galaxy - A stack of 75 images of M51 downloaded from the SLOOH Gallery.Images captured by Teide-2 high mag on various dates in 2009. SLOOH Gallery search term M51 should find them all, unless they have been subsequently removed. Alignment and stacking was done with an as-yet unnamed image processing program that I am working on in my spare time.
