m33 Triangulum Galaxy

I have been wanting to redo this since 2017 when I first got into astrophotography, I have to say this version makes me proud. This Spiral galaxy M33 is located in the triangle-shaped constellation Triangulum, earning it the nickname the Triangulum galaxy, but is also known as the Pinwheel galaxy. At 2.73 million light-years from Earth and about half the size of our Milky Way galaxy, M33 is the third-largest member of our Local Group of galaxies following the Andromeda galaxy (M31) and the Milky Way. Hope you all enjoy and thanks for any constructive comments.
