Imaging through Svbony 60/240 guide scope

Due to the guide scope's curved field, the galaxy was captured in one stack, while the surrounding stars were captured in other stacks.

Final result: 1 stack (galaxy) + 8 star stacks.

Background from the galaxy stack, then creating star masks, assembling the star field, and blending (all done in PI).

Wanted to capture Andromeda in its entirety, but it turned out to be quite tricky.
