Stacked, aligned with Maxim DL

Flats, Bias and Darks applied.

Processed with Pixinsight, MaximDL, Images Plus and Photoshop CS3.

 

An initial process of M31 but I will attempt it again at a later date as I become more familiar with Pixinsight and Photoshop. I have spent many hours experimenting with the several processing applications available to me but I am now starting to develop a workflow that I am happy with.

 

This image was stacked,aligned and registered with MaximDL but when I have an opportunity I will experiment with the Pixinsight pre-processing.
