Description

The Triangulum spiral galaxy (M33) is the second largest galaxy I am aware of that can be imaged or seen. Under ideal conditions it can be seen (but I havent had the pleasure of said conditions yet! 🙂 ) It is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful targets for broadband imaging. Will benefit from much longer integration times! Looking forward to add some more time on this one.

I am not entirely sure about the streak going through the middle/bottom of the image. It showed up in my images, in the same spot for 45 mins and then disappeared! My friend thinks its satellites but... thats a long time Let me know what you all think!
