Canon Camera with 300mm lens on star tracker.
Stacked 30, 2 min subs in deep sky stacker, and processed in Photoshop.
The Whirlpool Galaxy or M51 at 300mm. It appears very small as telescopes are best for this object. Still you are able to see the two galaxies interacting and some detail in the spiral arms.
