M109 and friends 23/24-4-26 (combined data from both nights): 4.5 hrs total integration of LRGB/Ha data taken over two nights with a Sky Watcher Esprit 80 fitted with a field flattener using an ASI 533MM Pro camera and mono EFW. This galaxy laden area of Ursa Major east of the star Phecda is a sight to behold, with two prominent barred spiral galaxies; M109 some 67 M LY away and NGC3953 around 59 MLY dominating the field with many others nearby.
