 With the bad weather and my other constraints I only got in one night of imaging in Nov and Dec. Two hours practice on M31. The first hour was dark (for Poway) but the second hour the moon came up.  The image isn't very deep and it took a bit of processing to get the sky background out but I thought it was good enough to post.
