Very Pleased Tonight

[bokeh]

So it's New Years eve and I've already ticked an object off my 2013 imaging list, M31. I've been out tonight (since I can't be arsed to go out anywhere else) with the camera in my back garden. After a few months of trying to get this, I finally got an image of M31. Here it is:

And although neither of them are on my 2013 list, I managed to get a black and white image of Jupiter with the M45 cluster. 2 Messier objects, 1 night! I shall post this second image in the reply section as I've already reached the upload limit with the first photo.

I fell confident now in starting my quest to image the other objects in my 2013 list and am eager to see M31 through my scope!

Happy New Year everyone! Have a good one and see you in 2013!

Sorry guys, I didn't realize that you couldn't reply with images, I shall upload in a separate thread.

NICE!!! I'm heading up to the hills around 11pm to watch all the fireworks going off at midnight throughout the Cherwell valley, but since we've got nothing but wind and rain, I won't be getting the scope out tonight lets hope for clearer skies in the nights to come. Happy New Year

Great image! Looks exactly the same as my first DSO image.
