My dad's old (70s!) telephoto objectives (Canon FD 200mm/f2.8 & Soligor 350mm/f5.6) with a Canon EOS 400D DSLR. Originally on a tripod, but later on a computerized EQ mount.

Andromeda
35x4s exposures, the "newspaper" finish is due to a mistake I made in DeepSkyStacker, but I like the Isaac Roberts look of it -- and I'm stunned to see a hint of the spiral structure AND M110 there already!

Andromeda (R)GB
Fine tuning my image development pipeline, this one's in color and properly calibrated with flat, darks & offset correction. Same set of light frames as in the earlier version.
