ASI178mm camera, 350 gain, 5 minute image

This is the way not to do things.
Sloppy on polar alignment - look at the edges, things drifted badly and caused streaking in the image
It was a cold night and the scope did not reach equilibrium temperature .. causes image distortion
Focus was not as tight as needed - this seriously degrades the star images

Still -- the galaxy is fairly clear in this EAA view
