Description

This is my second attempt at M33 (one year later), again from the Austrian Alps at 1600m ... unfortunately, it was a windy night (big stars :-)) and it took me hours to get my setup hauled up the hill and all running (even my trusted MGEN didn't boot up for an hour). The final pic is quite an aggressive crop of the true field of view (f=430mm with APS-C sensor size). Not optimal (though it did involve some lengthy processing), but the best I could make out of this 1 hour of exposure with this little scope.

I particularly like how the HII regions NGC588 and IC132 in this galaxy stand out ... ;-)
