NGC 5585

Description

NGC 5585 is a galaxy not far from Messier 101 i never noticed before, distance from earth is about 34 million light years. The season is coming to an end here so not going to start a longer project and making the most of clear skies despite the moon. Not the best way to demonstrate the capability of 30"F3.6 (with cc) but it feels great to image and get a result despite the moons impact.
