I decided to collect some data on M31 while doing a public observing session for Boothe Memorial Astronomical Society the other night. I had my portable setup which consists of the ASIAIR, Atlas Mount, ASI2600MC, and Canon 200mm Lens and was bouncing around to various objects when I stopped here for a bit. Boothe Park is located in Stratford which is not known for astronomical imaging given its Bortle 7 skies but I imaged anyway. I think it came out pretty well using what had. I collected 40 minutes using the UV-IR filter and 30 minutes using the NBZ filter in an effort to get some Ha but probably would have been better just collecting more regular data.
