The Pinwheel Galaxy

Another very tricky target, the Triangulum Galaxy. I need more exposure time to get the spiral arms better.

    • Other: Pinwheel Galaxy

The Andromeda Galaxy

Another try on M31. Better processing techniques. M32 is obvious as well.

Designations:

    • Messier: M31
    • New General Catalogue: NGC 224
    • Other: Andromeda Galaxy
Telescope: Vernonscope

The Andromeda Galaxy

The Andromeda galaxy is another tough target. Bright core, faint spiral, and so large it’s hard to fit in a single frame. Still, it’s a great object to shoot.

Designations:
    • Common Name: Andromeda Galaxy
    • Messier: M31
    • New General Catalogue: NGC 224
    • Other: Andromeda Galaxy
Telescope: Vernonscope
Camera: Nikon D5000
