Description

What's not to love about Triangulum?

Plenty of other more distant galaxies in view as well.

Star-forming nebulosity visible in another galaxy, maybe not quite as large in the view as in LMC, but its there.

Nice big, bright, spiral galaxy.

Transiting at 25° from my location, not quite as much of a challenge as Andromeda but still lots of atmosphere to see through and poor guiding.

Threw everything at processing this. Gave each channel of the entire frame a 3x drizzle and its own deconvolution, then crunched down the combined JPEG to reduce the filesize from 40 to 10MB.

Hope you enjoy.
