Orion Nebula--January 12, 2012

Taken with 180mm APO, 6 x 120s Luminance stacked with Montage. Custom matplotlib/numpy/pyfits log function. (matplotlib.cm.Greys_r)

Same image, fun colorscales in matplotlib :-) (matplotlib.cm.Accent)

Andromeda Galaxy--January 12, 2012

180mm APO, 16 x 120s stacked with Montage, but plotted with custom numpy/matplotlib arctan function.

Taken with 180mm APO Refractor, 14 x 120s Exposures, stacked with Montage, plotted with APLpy using a sinh function.

Just a single exposure of above, again with the sinh function (didn't require Montage).
