M31 150 minute exposure was created by phoenix
I thought I would spend my time tonight taking luminance only images and hope to get RGBs tomorrow or after. Total exposure was 150 minutes at 1x1.

Still a rough process

Fab image Kieran,
One thing is that you might be better off getting a field flattener, what kind of scope did you use for this ?

Wow, for a 150 minute exposure, you've done really well! Sone of the stars look a bit like bubbles, mind you, but the galactic (and nebulosity) detail is stunning!
