Unguided Andromeda

Am in the process of setting up with a second rig !

We get so few clear skies here in Leeds that don't want to waste them and with all the misery of the pandemic wanted to do something positive

So this is first light with my new TS Optics refractor and Skywatcher mount

Several teething problems with guide scope etc so I did these unguided (with only 30 second subs and at 520mm this seems to wok fine)

Also haven't got round to doing flats or darks so had to do a bit of gymnastics in the processing to get rid of a couple of dust mots

Certainly not the best pic of Andromeda on here but the first one I have posted and perhaps not too bad given no flats etc and unguided

43 x 30 secs lume (did 120 but clouds)

60 x 30 secs Red

60 x 30 secs Green

15 x 30 secs Blue (did 60 but clouds)

Am looking forward to loads of good pics with this new set up once I get it all working

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
