Andromeda Galaxy

Did you do darks, bias and flats too?

dust lanes are clearly visible, did you use darks and flats?

Beautiful shot. The kind you can stare at and appreciate something new each time.

Great pics I'm the same and wondering if you used darks or bias

Fabulous. I am just starting, and looked at this the other evening before the storm came through. Could see M32 as well, looking forward to trying some photography with DSLR this week. My learning curve is still nearly vertical, but going to give it a go. Going to try a couple different techniques, both a long exposure as well as stacking several shorter exposures. Will be running software in Fedora Astronomy and probably controlling the camera with Darktable (did that once before a couple years ago when I first got the scope, then it was put away for awhile).
