Brief Description

Name: images/m31_allstack.jpg
M31

Exposure details:  Canon Rebel XT modified at ISO1600 (22 x 4 min) 88 min plus flats, dark flats, darks and bias frames
Date Posted: 8/18/2010 10:17:00 PM
Comments:  prime focus 5'' f5 refractor. Stacked using Deep Sky Stacker. I've changed to a portable setup now (we moved and so no observatory yet!) and with weather and the teething pains of going portable this is my first photo in some time that I think has been worthwhile. All in all I think it turned out pretty good!

Comments:  prime focus 8'' f5 Newtonian. Stacked using DeepskyStacker. Now this came out very nice. First really good try with bias frames. It made the flats work a lot better. Other than levels and curves there is very little processing on this image. A bit of noise reduction and that''s about it.
