M31, first DeepSkyStacker attempt
Had some issues with DSS 3.2.2, but 3.3.3 beta 51 and I got along a lot better. This is my first attempt at stacking RAW images. This is a total of 11 RAW files that represent a total of 6 minutes of integrated exposure time. The Pentax K-5ii was set at ISO 800 for all exposures and these are camera-on-tripod subs, "guided" only by the Pentax O-GPS1 unit stuck in the hot shoe, which moves the camera's sensor to compensate for the turning of the earth. The longest sub-exposure was 45 seconds.
