Here's my latest image, albeit not as good as I had hoped of M31. Taken on 9-27/9-28. The image has 49-5 minute lights, 5 darks, 50 flats and 50 bias frames. Taken with the Canon XSi with the Televue TRF 2008 (FF-FR) at an effective focal length of 384mm @ F/4.8 with the Hutech LDAP. Guided with the Meade 10" LX200 @ F8 and the SX Lodestar. Calibration and processing in Images Plus 3.82. I will either re-process this image in photoshop or add more integration time to it.

Very clean image. Maybe a little less red channel & and more blue would help expose those outer dust lanes. I can appreciate the work you put into it so far. -Jim Aldrich
