Hi again,
 
This time M51 not great but a start and processing is overdone do bring out some detail, still learning it all but my best galaxy so far.
 
M51 Taken using SW 150PDS, EQ5 and a Canon 650D (unmodded with coma corrector).
Using Backyard EOS, Deep Sky Stacker and Paint Shop Pro X6.
10 x 40 second lights, 5 x 40second darks, 7min 20secs in total.
ISO 1600
