This is my image of Messier 33, this is a spiral galaxy and lies just over 2 million light years away, it along with our milky way galaxy, The Andromeda galaxy and the large and small Magellanic clouds make up the local group of galaxies which is then part of the Virgo super cluster. This image is the result of stacking 60 X 20 sec exposures in Deed Sky Stacker. This galaxy is difficult to image this time of year as it is so low. You can just make out some of the spiral arms, better seeing conditions and more exposures should improve the image.
