A break from Mars, M33

Hello,
I thought I could use a break trying my hand at Mars and did some deep sky imaging. Since M33 happened to be up I figured I'd give it a shoot :-)

Thank god, I needed that break!

Excellent shot Chris! Makes me look forward to getting my wedge.

Take care,

Spectacular image. Quite as good as the ones you see in the glossy astronomy books. I'm glad there's someone who hasn't forgotten there are other things in the sky besides Mars!

Chris, this looks great! You can even see that huge nebula region at about the 8 o'clock position. It has its own NGC number but I don't remember what it is offhand.

I didn't realize that it was possible to stack reducers; it didn't seem to hurt your image any. I have a Celestron 5i and while it isn't a refractor like yours (I assume), maybe I'll be able to shoot photos like this once I get the appropriate camers.

Good job!
