Thanks for that research. I will add that to the list of things to image.
I appreciate your input.

Have wanted to get this one down myself but nothing but cloud here for the last two weeks.

A little soft but as you've commented, seeing and conditions weren't great.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Rich.

Its a cropped image and a small galaxy and quite faint. As far as softness goes I suspect I could do a bit better if my rig were at my dark site on a good night but apart from that I think this is the limit of this scope and what it can do or close to it. Perhaps an AO unit may improve it a bit.

Greg.
