Description

M33 is a large galaxy, but a difficult target - much dimmer than its neighbor, M31.

I took this picture during Xmas last year, under a perfectly dark sky in Texas. Didn't get a chance to shoot some Ha for it, thus the nebulae are not red enough, but still, lots of details to be appreciated for this distant galaxy taken in a dark sky.
