The Andromeda Galaxy - M31

This is a really tight fit with the ed80, 0.6 reducer and Atik 314L, probably too tight really loosing the outer arms but, its all practice with the kit!!

x10 10min subs Lum, x12 5min subs R/G/B - all unbinned.

I think I prefer this version stacked using dss and photoshop:

This one is stacked in maxim dl and tweaked in photoshop:

Thanks for looking.

Hi Simon well if thats a practice bring on the main event great image.

Would the .85 FR made much difference do you think to the image.

Very good But yes, you could do with a bigger image sensor for that - it fits nicely in the cheaper DSLR sensors.

Looks really good:)

I second Gina's advice if you want to fit the whole disc in the FOV, for examaple I've made a start on it with a similar focal length frac to yours and a DSLR and this is the kind of framing you get with the DLSR, also it was cropped a bit:)
