M31 Andromeda nebula

This is the Andromeda nebula, also known as M31 in the Messier catalogue. Our nearby galaxy. This is an exposure of 13x10min ISO800 autoguided with my Eos400d attached to my 200mmF5 newton on HEQ5pro mount. In the bottom right also M32 is visible and in the mid right NGC206.



This is the same picture after extensive postprocessing in Photoshop CS2.....
