Messier 95, also known as M95 or NGC 3351, is a barred spiral galaxy located about 33 million light-years away in the zodiac constellation Leo. It was discovered by Pierre Méchain in 1781, and cataloged by fellow French astronomer Charles Messier four days later. It has around 40 billion stars.

This is Part of the Double Cluster imaged during the moon phase so not the best conditions. I may make this a mosaic and capture the other half to complete it. Processing wise I have not really done much just stretched it and a bit of noise reduction and that's it a nice easy one.

Horsehead Nebula LRGB, Ha. Taken from PixelSkies, Spain www.pixelskiesastro.com

This target was what got me into Astrophotography many years ago but I could never do it justice in the UK with the light-polluted skies in Birmingham so now living in Spain and running a Remote Telescope Hosting site I have been able to collect better quality data and do it more justice.
