Although I still want to get a better image this is by far my best attempt at M31. I’ve only tried two other times.
Dwarf 3
EQ Mode
Exposure 30
Gain 60
Bortle 7
Northern Hemisphere

My first attempt at the needle galaxy from my bortle 6/7 backyard. I believe it was about 430 stacked frames and this is also cropped and edited in the photos app on my iPhone. Eventually I want to start editing in Siril, but just enjoying what I’m able to do at the moment.
This is my first moon shot taken with the Dwarf 3 last night. I’m new to using smart telescopes and I’ve had my dwarf 3 for a few weeks now, but I’m finally getting clear skies!
This is a 20 stacked image automated in the app under a Bortle 7 sky. Slightly edited in the photos app on my iPhone 16.
Can’t wait to hopefully get more clear skies this summer!
