M81 (Core only) and M82 from SG sky 08 Apr 2024

M81, can only see the core, M82 sligtly better due to sharp edge target tends to captured with better contrast. Took with Canon 500D (filter replaced) at iso 1600 30sX49 on 08 April 2024. Gpd2 mount / Starbook-S. TS-65 65/420mm Scope. SG Tampines. (Went Changi Board Walk - behind Changi Point Ferry Terminal with portable setup twice but cloud came in after setup).
