Triangulum Galaxy M33
My first attempt at this target. Was quite pleased with the spiral detail in this quite tight crop of the SPA-1 data. However I struggled to get anything like natural colour into the image so decided to leave it 'neutral' rather than false. Will revisit when skills improve! Image is 75*600s subs (18 of G, 19 of LRB) processed in Affinity Photo.
