Andromeda Galaxy M31 and friends

Yesterday night I managed to take my telescope and other equipment to dark place. I wanted to test my process of astro photos.

I took 279 1 second exposures with ISO2500. DeepSkyStacker then used 229 of them to make on picture. After that I adjusted curves and levels in Photoshop. It took me 3-4 hours of work to get this far. This was my first time that I tested whole procedure. Next time will be faster :)

In the picture objects from Messier Catalog:
- Center: M31 Andromeda
- Top: M110
- Bottom M32
