M104, the Sombrero Galaxy
This is a 42 min exposure on the Sombrero Galaxy taken through an 8" scope from my driveway. It was fairly windy the night I took this and ended up having to throw away half the frames I took bc of elongated stars and such. So at some point I will collect more sub exposures to add to this which should help tone down the noise which this image is saturated with. I am thrilled with all the other detail visible in the image and by how the galaxy came out though. Stay tuned!
