Good night from M31 (Andromeda), our neighbour galaxy.
Stacked about 35 minutes of exposure, reduced stars a bit, enhanced contrast.
YOU CAPTURED THIS!!???!?!?!??
What a universe we live in!
Yes and yes
However, i did a full star reduction and blended the original layer over it, with 60% opacity and boosted whites.
That made the Andromeda galaxy look so impressive and added way more depth to the image. The original stacked data frames were looking a little too boring and flat.
I was always fascinated looking up in the sky at night since i was a child. Looking up keeps us grounded and also reminds us what tiny of an unimportant fart we really are
EDIT: Tomorrow i'll try to have a shot at the moon. First try, by the way. I hope for clear skies
