Last night were best conditions for a longer session with the telescope. I had set my sights on the previously photographed galaxy M33.

M33 – Triangulum Galaxy

 

In contrast to the two previous shots (the last one was only a test anyway) of the galaxy, I had left the camera position as it was. So the image is not rotated.

First of all, I am very satisfied with the image. The dust spots, which had been very annoying in the last shot (despite appropriate flats) have disappeared. The noise is also very much within limits thanks to dithering and appropriate post-processing.
