Nice work, it's a beautiful galaxy.

I always find this one difficult visually in a 12" so I'm not surprised it took so much data.

Thanks for the comments. I enjoyed this project to, and i think was worth the effort especially as there is other faint fuzzies in the picture. I remember a few years ago when i was in yorkshire looking for this object with binoculars. Only then to find out that i located M34!
