M106

This is my first 'dark sky site' image with the EdgeHD 8". Unfortunately, it was windy every day and I had to discard nearly half the sub-exposures. This is about 1 hour of L and 0.5 hours each of RGB. I should have switched to my short refractor under these conditions, but when you have a new toy you gotta play with it!
