M31 Widefield

[AstroAndy]

I guess this goes here.

M31, shot under less than ideal conditions, towards a lit street with 3/4 of the moon up, 20x3m (1hr) at 75mm, cal. 31dfb, preproc. DSS, final workup PS CS2, PHD guiding w/ QHY5 Mono cam, capture with Backyard EOS.

Nice! Bit eggy in the bottom left corner. Which to me would suggest orthogonal issues (my new word of the day) rather than tracking.

But I am sure some real experts could put us both right.

Given the light pollution - well done that man!

Ty, Ian, tracking was good, with an RMS value of 0.13 avg., maybe a bit of flex there, just glad one of my first Canon pics. came out the way it did, I normally do CCD, imaging.
