This is my second try at the Andromeda galaxy. This image is shot with an ordinary camera and lens, though the work behind the image is much more than point and shot. The total exposure time is a bit more than 2 hours. For anyone interested in the workflow and equipment:

Samyang 135mm f2.0 lens
Fuji XT-5
410 images shot @20s exposure time
calibrated and stacked in Siril
background extraction with GraXpert
star removal with Starnet++
stretched in Siril with GHST and levels in PS
final editing, star recomposition and cropping in PS
