Left pictures (pos and neg): Canon 700D, T=15 sec, f=85 mm, ISO 1600, f/2, 50% cropped
Right picture: Canon 700D attached to telescope, T=5x1 min, ISO 3200, f=750 mm f/5

The picture is an area in the constellation Cepheus. N 6939 is an open starcluster in "our" Milkyway and is at a distance of ~3900 Ly. N 6946 is a galaxy like "our" Milkyway and is at a distance of 20 Mio Ly

Lucky to have in April more than a week clear skies. Time for the Virgo cluster. This galaxy cluster contains more than 5000 galaxies. It hosts a number of "famous" galaxies, a.o, M87 the jet and black hole elliptical galaxy

Left and middle a positive and negative display of whole field, taken with Canon 700D and Samyang lens: f=85 mm, f/2.0, ISO 3200, T=50x15 sec.

Picture on the right taken with Canon 700D attached to telescope: f=750 mm, f/5, ISO=3200, T=40x15 sec.

Finally a nice clear sky and a possibility to find NGC 5907, an edge-on galaxy I studied ~40 years ago with the WSRT radiotelescope in the Netherlands

M 101 is a galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major (in which Alkaid is one of the brighter stars). The halo around the bright stars is due to lens errors.
