A stack of 53, 30 second images at ISO1600. Taken with an 80mm Celestron Onxy refractor, field flattener, and a Canon 50D. Darks, flats, and bias frames applied. Uncropped.

If you look at about 11 oClock and a couple of fingers away from the core, there's a little galaxy.

Thanks for pointing out the lack of saturation. I reprocessed it and I think it looks better now.
