Description

M31 Andromeda Galaxy

Same galaxy, different telescope. With M31 hanging as an obvious target this time of year, capturing with the William Optics Zenithstar 61 seemed in order. Even with the short focal length of 360mm, the camera still had to be rotated somewhat to fit this enormous celestial target. Imaged from a highly light polluted suburban environment.
