M81 taken during a touring trip in February 2024 in the mountains at an altitude of 1650m. The weather was not very favorable: the passage of clouds forced me to interrupt part of the shooting especially in the color session. I was unable to complete the number of shots in the two days also to be able to develop the Drizzling image. I hope you like it despite the difficulties.
