Andromeda via Coonabarabran
Hello,
The Andromeda Galaxy from my latest trip to Coonabarabran last New Moon.
My favourite object from my favourite spot.
What do you think?
Thanks for looking.

Superb image Ross! Absolutly fantastic effort from 30 + degrees S. The seeing must have been steady and clear, looks like it was shot on the meridian! Beautiful

It is very nice, would be a good target for my 80mm if i can see it. My house blocks it and light pollution takes the rest.

I'd have to agree about the "favourite object" part and that's a superb image of it. Not easy from down here. Well done.

Nicely processed, and a difficult target for southern hemisphere dwellers.

Thank you David, very high praise but not deserved.
I produced many, many versions of this photo with Photoshop before I got lucky.
Thanks.
