My M33 from last night

Well, last night I went out and setup the WO 80mm APO and did a little imaging with the ST2000xm.
This is the first time that I used the 80mm with the ST2k, so I did not know what to expect.
Well, I was pleasantly surprised with the image, the 80mm just takes good data.
This was taken from 7:30pm util 12:15am for a total of 4.5 hours
L = 9 x 10min
R = 6 x 10min
G = 6 x 10min
B = 6 x 10min
CS2 and AIP4Win were used to process and stack the subs.
What do you think? I am pretty pleased with the outcome myself. grin

Excellent image Floyd,maybe seems a bit purple on my monitor but very nice.

Floyd,
Really nice shot. In particular the colors are beautiful and I love the way you've brought out the "knots" in the arms. Great detail.
