I started imaging M33 from home last month, and I continued gathering more subs last weekend at the Connecticut Star Party. Here is the result of the combined data.

Andy,
That is amazing. I cant believe the detail you have in that image. Its always nice to see an image of what was observed a few nights ago.

The vividness of the colors in this image is simply stunning! The amount of star forming going on out there is mindboggling.

Re: M33 from CSP
Andy you've GOT to start publishing your work, even if only in the gallery sections
of Sky and Telescope and Astronomy to start!
You can be an inspiration to so many.
We are already inspired. Stunned perhaps, but inspired.
