Description
This is M106,a spiral galaxy that is located in Canes Venatici. Right above the big dipper in the North. The other smaller galaxy in the field to the lower right of M106 is NGC 4248, a 12.7v magnitude spiral galaxy about 3 x 1 arc minutes in size. That is SMALL! The star on the upper left is a magnitude 6.1. Thanks for viewing
