M31 at last



I've always struggled with this object. This capture is a bit lacking
in the red department but is my best attempt so far. It was taken on
the 22nd November using a Skywatcher 80 ED Pro refractor, unguided on
a GP-DX mount using a Canon 20Da DSLR camera.

I'm still figuring out which components I used (exposure etc.) for the
final stack (I didn't keep notes when I was processing - oops). When
I've sorted it all out I'll add the information to the image.
