 m81_030315.jpg -    Object:   M81     Date:   March 15th 2003     Instrument:   LX200 10" f/10 + 0.33 FR     Camera:   SXV-H9     Exposure:   10x 2 minutes     Filters:   Orion Skyglow     Comments:   Taken with a f/3.3 focal reducer (not calculated the exact ratio yet but it 'looks' around f/4 to me) and an Orion Skyglow filter.  The noise is bad (because of the moon - very marginal conditions) and I disturbed the optical setup before taking a flat field, so the background is not corrected as well as it should be
