Hi all! grin
Last night I got out with fair conditions and got one image. I did not setup the shot as well as I could have and the galaxy is not horizontal. But it was a test image to check out whether I was getting a goo polar alignment and to see what weights for colors I should use for this type object.
Here is M33, 10 x 8min Lum, 2x 8min RGB.

Nice image Floyd!

You have a new G11 right? How are you doing the polar alignment?
