Description

About 2 weeks ago Michael van Doorn (dutchastrocolors.com) and me made images of M33 on the same evening. He took his images with his C11 Hyperstar, a 27 cm reflector with a f-ratio of only 2, allowing him to take very short exposures to gather much color information. At the same time I took images of a smaller field (the galaxy itself) with the TEC140 giving a higher resolution.

We combined the images before, but now we took the Hyperstar data for the widefield and the TEC data for the galaxy. This gives a perfect combination for gathering an image under light polluted conditions in a short time.

In total 11h of data were used for this image.

This shows the image in the native TEC resolution, with an upscaled hyperstar, totalling up to 23Mp!
