3 Improved Galaxy Images
Here are three Galaxies I have previously imaged, but I put a lot more effort into the capturing this time.

All the same: ED80, Modified Toucam, 8 x 180 second images, captured in 'Desire', stacked in Registax, Processed in Photoshop, finished in PaintShop Pro.

I captured about 20 frames of each object but there was only about 8 of each object worth stacking.

I need Autoguiding.

Thanks all, yep I am pleased with them.

Still a bit of Moonlight in them but not as bad as the night previous.
