Part of the Local Group of galaxies that includes Andromeda and the Milky Way. M33 is not an ideal Southern Hemisphere object to view or image. I captured this one at Mudgee NSW when the galaxy was around 20 degrees above the horizon. 10 x 4 minute subs for a total of 40 minutes exposure. Celestron GPS11 with Hyperstar f1.8 lens and Meade DSI III camera.
