Description

M31 I just got my new (to me) Canon 5D MK II and was eager to give it a try. So I rushed out to our dark sky site (an hour from home). Started unpacking and realized to my horror that I had forgotten my autoguider. So...

I figured I could get a 1 minute exposure unguided and still have reasonably round stars. Thus, 120 exposures later I had 2 hours on M31. Remarkably, it turned out pretty good
