Description

Wanted to try M31 with a new 135mm Rokinon f/2 lens.  Didn't pick the best night, as a 70% moon and some smoky skies were my background.  Did a stack of 60 lights (no darks, flats or bias as I do a camera-raw conversion to start) then processed in DSS and finished with PS21 and Astronomy Tools. ISO 800
