M33 Triangulum Galaxy
Thank you everyone for the faves and wonderful comments!
The final version of this photo looks way better! ☺️
A work in progress on M33. I need to capture more color data, but the weather is blocking me pretty hard.
- Taken from a Bortle 5 suburban back yard.
- Takahashi FSQ-106EDX4 at f/5.
- SBIG ST-8300M at 1x1 binning, with the FW5-8300 5 position filter wheel.
- IDAS LPS-D3 36mm unmounted filter for luminance and Astronomik Deep-Sky 36mm unmounted RGB filters.
- Losmady G11 Gemini 2, guided with a piggybacked AstroTech 65EDQ and an Orion StarShoot autoguider.
- Software included PHD2 for guiding, Sequence Generator Pro for acquisition, and PixInsight for image processing.
- 100 x 600s luminance integrations (IDAS LPS-D3)
- 15 x 600s each red, green and blue filters
Just over 19 hours total exposure time so far...
