Andromeda Galaxy finderscope image
Unusual capture through the modded finder of my Questar. This is a 4 hour capture from last night, using livestacks of 8 second exposures. The modification is a Televue lens with 112 mm focal length replacing the standard Q finder, which allows me to bring a filtered camera to focus.
Tech stuff: Finderscope on 3.5” Questar/ QHY 5iii178 color/ Astronomik CLS filter/ SharpCap/PixInsight/ ACDSee. From my yard in Westchester SQM-L 18.7
