Description

This shot taken at the recent NSAS Hunter Valley Star Party. 

M31 is almost impossible for me to see from Sydney. as it only rises a few degrees above the horizon -  so I (and many others) took advantage of the low-northerly view.

I had technical issues all weekend, and only managed to capture just under 2hrs on the final night.

This is my first galaxy image.
