Description

M31 The Andromeda Galaxy, M32 and M110.

Taken nearly two years ago, this was originally a 6 part mosaic, but I decided to concentrate on the lower 4 panels for its first outing on Astrobin.

The image has been re-processed many times, each one better than the last and with better processing skills. I am so pleased with this version that I regret not adding the top 2 panels. I may revisit it when I have a few hours to spare!

Processed with SiriL, Photoshop CS6 and Starnet++. Mosaic stitched with Microsoft ICE.

Each panel: 8 x 240s with darks, flats and bias.

Taken using a stock Canon EOS 550D with no filters and my Celestron 11" SCT at f6.3.

Revised image - Finally fully reprocessed and completed the 6 part mosaic. I don't think I'll be doing this one again for a while!
