M31 (Andromeda Galaxy)
Finally, last week we had some clear nights🌘, so I did some deep sky imaging 😁
This image is about 10 hours total exposure time from a very light polluted area without LP filter!

I'm trying to do a mosaic with three panels.

For some reason, my guiding wasn't great, I don't like the star shape and colour!

Details:
Telescope: skywatcher Esprit 150ed apo triplet 🔭
Camera: Nikon D7100 unmodified 📷
Mount: skywatcher AZ EQ6 pro
Guide scope: skywatcher evoguide 50ed
Guide camera: Asi zwo 224mc
-------
Software used:
Imaging software: digiCamControl v2.1.1
Guiding software: PHD2 v2.6.6
Post-processing: Pixinsight v1.8, Adobe Lightroom.
Windows 10 Home.

Well that's looking superb.  The full mosaic will be epic!

Thanks MartinB,

It may clear up tonight, if so I'll try to get more data!
