M64

               An LRGB of M64 located in the constellation of Coma Berenices . It is also known as the "Blackeye" galaxy for obvious reasons ! This image is an integration of ten four minute exposures using an MX7c from Starlight Xpress, an Ultima 11" scope and Star 2000 self guiding interface at f3.0 in AstroArt 2.0 ! The ten images were stacked and dark frame subtracted using AA 2.0 ! After which a luminance was created from a single ten minute exposure and added to the RGB in Photoshop to create the LRGB !
