Description

I thought I'd do something a little different and crop the full image (to be posted later) to just show the two arms.  There is a lot going on in those arms.  I was surprised to pick up as many small Ha star forming regions as I did.  I've been very impressed with the 61 MP sensor on the QHY600M since I started doing mono 10 months ago.  (Hmmm...should I keep my QHY367C-Pro?)   I would really like to get some Ha on this galaxy but that may have to wait for another day.  

Part 2 showing the arms on the other side of M31 to follow.
