Hi Geoff,
Great images! When you say 'piggyback', do you mean your camera was on a telescope guided with PHD2? Or was your camera on a DVA bracket or something similar, attached directly to a dovetail bar (and no scope)? I haven't begun this sort of imaging yet, although I have a SW AZ-EQ6 at the ready (but polar alignment is never very accurate).
Cheers,
Richard
