Description

First cut at an image of M31, the Andromeda Galaxy.  Taken 10/2/21 at home using an AVX mount, William Optics GT71, 0.8 WO reducer, and ZWO ASI294MC Pro camera.  This is from one 6 minute exposure from about 12:15 AM with guiding via PHD2.  Processed with ASIFitsView and Apple edit.  Attempts to stack the dozen or so similar images have not worked yet.  Not sure about the color tint, as PixInsight has so far not yielded any color.
