M 33 -- 2.5 hours with the Seestar S50
Last night, we had extremely clear and transparent skies here in Charlotte. Rather than drizze and stack it myself, I took the image below from a 4K raw FIT file stacked by the Seestar. The total integration time was 2.56 hours, with 20 second subs in EQ mode. I processed the image in Siril with Veralux and Cosmic Clarity. I adjusted saturation to bring out the many colors captired by the scope in Affinity 2.
