I was feeling like a bit left out after all the Astrofest M31 images so I had a quick go at it from Leyburn last new moon
I didn't have much time to spend on it but I don't think it turned out too badly. The colour is still a bit iffy - part lack of data and part lack of processing skill. Will need to spend a few nights on it another time...

Thanks for looking. Constructive criticism appreciated!
Cheers,
