Originally I had 2 hours of data, this is all I could salvage......I've since gone 'boy scout' and set up a dew busting solution you could brew beer with using a few cut up electrical cords, a dimmer light switch, some shrink wrap and a beer brewers keg warmer (told you that you could brew beer with it!). I'm too scared to put it at it's hottest setting because I think it'll melt down.......at 75% the plastic sheath on keg warmer started smoking......It works great at about 30% of full power. Cost - $30

Nice image, although the sky is too black for my taste. I suggest you
lighten the background and see which you prefer. Also the blue nebulosity is
quite a lot more extensive than shown in your image, like a collar right around it,
so I'm guessing the black clipping has diminished it.

I'll give it a crack tonite......your advice has helped so far so why stop taking it now!

Keep 'em coming.
I think it is time I smash out a looooong exposure on something Mick, I've been playing (and failing most of the time) on short 30m-60m shots. I've set a personal goal to try and get 10 hours on something over multiple nights in the next month.....still trying to work out a target though......maybe Triffids next door neighbor, Lagoon.
