Andromeda Galaxy – M31

Been having several nice clear nights in a row and was able to capture the Andromeda Galaxy last night. Was planning on using the Sky-Watcher EQ-AL55i Pro but the USB-C connection has come loose and will no longer talk to the laptop, so I used my older iOptron SkyGuider Pro with the OM-1 tethered to the laptop and controlled using OM Capture software.
