Finally got M33 was created by phoenix
After many nights of weather interuptions to my attempts at M33 I have managed to combine luminance and blue images taken on the 17th Jan with red and green taken last night. Usual set up Skywatcher 80ED piggybacked on LX200 with SXV H16

Magnificent Keiran. Simply lovely.
You did a wonderful job on the captures. I might even suggest that this would take a bit more brightness stretching. If I up the brightness on my monitor I can see a lot of the galactic halo.
Well done, this is definitely one to be printed and framed!

Carl,
This was manually guided by using the hand box in between exposures. I have guided before with Starlight cameras but using astroart rather than the software that comes with the camera. Astroart is much easier to use but I still have not tried guiding with the astroart 4 upgrade. I did have a lot of niggles when I first tried guiding but I finally sorted it out by switching x and y axis.
David,
Its a Meade super wedge.
