Andromeda galaxy (M31) with M32 (8 o’clock) and M110 (4 o’clock). Image was captured using a Nikon D70 equipped with a Tamron 28-200mm lens (200mm, f5.6), and an iOptron SkyTracker pro camera mount. 10x120sec lights and 5 darks were stacked in Regim (Sigma combined 1.8), and post processed with Affinity photo. Amp glow, from the D70, was cropped out. Nu Andromeda was just visible to the naked eye (~4.5) - under light polluted skies. Several meteors was seen while taking the photos, at least two appeared to radiate from the direction of Gemini. Transparency was average, temps were in the mid 30’s (F) with winds gusting 10-12mph.
