M51 whirlpool galaxy (Remote control from China - Teamviewer)
This photo of the M51 have been done during my trip to China, during almost one month I could get enough photons to capture this amazing couple of galaxies.
Since I have my own observatory with a remote control I have more time and chances to make astrophotografy from my home located at 200 km, but this time I have tried to do it from China by Teamviewer, this is it been a new challenge for me. when I went to bed, leaving the computer on without physical presence and this is the final result. Hope you liked it.
This photo wouldn't be possible to make it without the help of my good friend Miguel Borrella that some nights he enter to my computer to check if everything goes well, he also lives at 500 Km from my observatory, but during my trip, he was more near than me in case there was something strange happened like the unexpected closing the roof, but it seems the job is well done and the Talon6 is running perfectly.
