Description

The Triangulum Galaxy is a spiral galaxy 2.73 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Triangulum. It is catalogued as Messier 33 or NGC 598. The Triangulum Galaxy is the third-largest member of the Local Group of galaxies, behind the Andromeda Galaxy and the Milky Way.

This was a tough one to pull data out from. I needed longer exposures just to get what I managed. The problem with that is that also increased the light pollution problems in the image. Still, this was a fun image to capture and process.
