Description
This is the same photo as my Andromeda dust lane details image, but rotated, cropped and further enhanced in Digital Photo Professional. Ignore the foreground stars between us and Andromeda and focus on the dark dust zones. There are numerous small faint luminous features, some of which appear to be globular clusters, although some are likely stars as well. As before, my scope is a Starmaster hybrid truss Dobsonian reflector with 14.5" f4.3 Zambuto mirror, Skycommander goto and tracking. ZWO ASI 294 MC pro camera at 5-deg C setpoint temperature at prime focus, with Baader MPCC. SharpCap live stack of RAW16 frames to create the image.
