M31 LRGB

[Tom OD]

Hi All,

Here is a 10 hour M31 with an FSQ106N and ATK4000. I took this in Les Granges in France last week over three nights, the 24/25 and 29th of Sept.

There is 260mins of L with 120mins of RGB. It took a while to process. The core is tricky.

Tom.

The standard of images of M31 on SGL this season has been outstanding and this is another beautiful example. Very nice work Tom worth all the hours put in

Certainly one of the best M31 images. John.

Thanks everyone. Rob the skies in Ollys are very dark which of course helps.

Of course I'd already seen this rather fine piece of work but, by Gad, that's what it is.

Like you, I spent a long time battling with this one in the treatment room. I like your darker blue spiral arms. I never managed to get that look out of my own attempt.

Olly.

I made a mistake in this description, it was taken with the Baby Q, 85mm focal lenght 450mm, not the FSQ106N.
