21.11.08, the night started clear and windy, with no Moon and the Milky Way fleetingly visible but it soon faded and by 11.30 had full cloud cover. After lots of fiddling I got the equipment working but the wind and seeing made very poor guiding, .8 of a pixel, where I've always had under .5.
I took 12x600sec frames of M33 but I wasn't as good as usual with focusing and of course it can change during the process of the 2 hours and I didn't refocus.
The usual gear used, M25C and 80ED guided by Geraldine who was reluctant to comply, though she seemed to finally come round. Processed in AA4 with the Lum in PS7. Cropped a little.

I always think this is a nice looking galaxy, this image is well detailed and shows the red Ha, star forming regions.
