First time Tarantula

It seems that this target is very popular now which makes sense.
Monday was the first time I had a go on NGC 2070.
I also had Sharpcap working with my Canon camera and did the polar alignment. Slewing to the target I used Stellarium.
The hand controller hasn't been used for a few sessions now.
Another new item was using TeamViewer to sit inside while checking on the progress on my tablet while the laptop was sitting next to the mount.

Still a lot to learn in post processing.

Mount: SW HEQ5 Pro
Scope: SW ED80
Main camera: Canon EOS-M6 M2
Guide camera: ZWO ASI120MM mini
Software used: Sharpcap 2.9, APT, Stellarium, PHD2, TeamViewer, Photoshop 2020

Attached is the full picture and a cropped version.
