M31 Dwarf Mini mosaic

Mosaic in 4 sections taken with Dwarf Mini in EQ mode (0° polar align). One hour exposure for each section (20×180s) at gain 60 for a total of 80 exposures. First image is semi-manual processing with StackingWizard + AstroWizard and BlurXterminator (free trial), second image is the automatic processing from Stellar Studio. I wanted to take 30 exposures for each section but had to shorten the night. The Dwarf Mini took 10 exposures for the first section then 10 for the second, 10 for the third, 10 for the fourth then it went back to the first section in a loop.

I didn’t succeed on the first try either, but it gets better after each night trying.
