The result of 2 galaxies colliding roughly 31 MLy away…very small faint galaxies can be seen in the bottom right and the top left of m51.
I spent 10 hours capturing long exposure photos and stacking them together to give the final result you see here. I used an inexpensive small smart telescope. My favourite target and my best work since starting this hobby. Thanks for looking!

Your garden has a better view of the universe than my entire city
Absolutely beautiful OP!
I have nothing more to add, but you have to have 25 characters, lol
That is beautiful! And from your garden?!
May I ask if this is achievable from a city suburb? Also please share a link of your telescope 🙏
this is amazing… im at a loss for words not gonna lie. the fact that 1 person can achieve this in their backyard is crazy to me.
