Galaxy hunting
Took advantage of the almost new moon and a clear sky to do some EAA. Visually, conditions looked very average. The sky looked quite washed out.
All my subframes were 2 seconds which gives me more time to revert bad frame and also drops fewer frames (1s frames come in too fast for integration). Used the 0.75x FR throughout.
Started and finished with M101 and M51 and got better results the second time around (they were higher in the sky and maybe also conditions improved).
