Description

First chance to gather light from Andromeda for an extended period of time. Left the CLS filter out of the camera this time, as I'd been having issues with it recently. Started to get a bit of a gradient from my streetlamp towards the end, but I did my best to remove that. Still not satisfied, but pleased with the progress.

Description: I've combined this with my previous imaging sessions (with the CLS filter) to improve luminance and contrast, and decrease noise. Not very scientific (different ISO & exposure lengths) but a marked improvement nonetheless.
