M33 Kelling Star Party

So this years Kelling Star Party was a first time experience for me, The skies didn't play ball as much as we wanted but I did manage to get nearly 3 hours of data of M33, not a target I had intentionally gone to image but happy with the results all the same.. especially considering the hours wasted during the best sky times trying to get the guiding going.


 


Total of 2 Hours 44 Min 46 Sec ISO 800 Mix of 300 & 600 Sec Exposures


 


Definitely one to keep adding data to over the next few sessions.

Great work Steven. Nice to see you spent most of the time concentrating on a single image.

I once got talking to a pro wildlife photographer and I will always remember what he said..."it is best to take one great photo than lots of okay photos"...and you have done that here.

The temptation to try to get loads of images in isn't helped by our rubbish skies of course.

Good one.

More data more data more data
