27th MAY 2022
Making my first observation of the year at the end of May was not what I planned but at least I get up and running ( ....limping?) with one of the finest galaxies in the sky.

| M51 |
M51 The famous Whirlpool galaxy and its companion NGC 5195 ( passing behind M51 ) Even on my 20 x 12" exposure plenty of structure is visible in the spiral arms. 31 million light years away in Canes Venatici . GT 147
 |
| M3 |
Although already observed on the Grand Tour I could not resist another look at Globular Cluster M3.
