Description

I've shot M33 many times over the years and have not tried with my new gear from a light polluted area. So inspired from some of the shots I've seen on Astrobin I thought I'd give it a go. I have to say I was amazed by the results. It's not going to win any prizes but this image is way better than one I shot ten years ago from a dark sky site using an STL11000 and Epsilon E160 which is a testament to the sensitivity and low noise of these new CMOS cameras.
