Starburst Galaxy (M82) and Bode's Galaxy (M81)

The site this was captured at is quite light polluted so faint details were unavailable - I hope to photograph these two galaxies at a dark site sometime soon, as they are framed quite nicely by the 120mm refractor. This was the first image of the evening and as usual, the focus drifted a little as the equipment finished cooling.
