The Andromeda galaxy (M31) as seen from the south hemisphere just above the trees.
The orange star on the top right corner is Mirach a red giant (MO III) that is roughly 200 light years away from our Sun. It's the brightest star in the constellation.
The satellite galaxy M32 is visible just touching the top of the trees.
The trees are moved because a tracking mount was used to avoid star-trails.
