Description

My very first attempt at photographing M33 the Triangulum Galaxy. I honestly didn't have high hopes of success for this deep-sky target as the seeing conditions were poor coupled with its large size which spreads out the surface brightness, however, I was pleasantly surprised at how well this photo turned out. The photo was taken across three nights with a total of 546 usable frames collected, 455 of which were stacked using Deep Sky Stacker. The details are as follows:

455 X 60s subframes @ ISO400
Canon EOS M50
Meade 80/400 Telescope
Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer 
Bortle 7 Zone
7.5hrs Total Integration Time

Taken from my backyard in the city.
