Description

Another first, I visited a dark site near my place called Binbrook there is a local astronomy club and was happy to be able to join them.

Very nice place and only about 40 minutes away. It was cloudy for a while, then was patchy so I was doing mostly visual. I wanted to just test my scope again and M31 was getting up there so I gave it a try. It was getting late and only had time for 14 exposures. There was some trailing this time, however a few images worked out and seemed to stack well.

When I brought it in PI I was surprised at the amount of dust clouds, this is also such a large target, very nice to photograph and process.

No cropping was done, enjoy!
