Thanks Robbie - pencilled in to get more RGB subs on this one to smooth out the background

A very good M33.  It looks very natural, the colour balance is good, lovely spiral arms and the outer flocculent regions are beginning to appear nicely. A bit more contrast nearer the core would help to define the dust lanes there.

How much data did you shoot?

Thanks Mark,

Not a lot 25 mins in each RGB channel (5x5min subs).

Less than 90minutes in total then.  Nice result for such a short total exposure!

That is a fine M33 Francis, never imaged it myself, probably because from 35S it doesn't get very high above the horizon, would love to have a go some day
