Description

Attempt #14 at the Andromeda Galaxy! It came out okay-ish. But it is part of an experiment I'm doing to see how well I can image with an alt-az mount using my Borg 76mm refractor. The large field of view is much more tolerant to the periodic tracking error that is pretty awful on this mount, so while I'm only taking 30-second exposures, I can still get some decent images.
