Description

Pictures of spiral galaxies are just fascinating - possibly because they show a perspective we will never be able to achieve for our own galaxy.

Shown here is our nearest neighbouring galaxy, Andromeda, which will collide with our Milky Way in 4-10 billion years.
This image features over 6 hours of deep luminance exposures, which were taken from my Bortle 2 mountain site.

I hope you like my result!
