Hi Glen, BYEos just shows it on a single frame OK but I would have thought 111 minutes of exposure would give me something to stack.
The 80 second exposure time is my high limit for LP management, it was a pretty good night transparency wise. Sculptor from a previous run came up easily within 90 mins of exposure but it is more edge on and denser.

Trouble is now I'll have to wait till another clear night comes along and that's not likely for a while.

Such is life I guess ...
