Probably the first and only time i will get to image Lovejoy

Well the weather down here in the gong has been awful in the mornings, at least when i have gotten up early enough.
But finally this morning, me and my fellow WAACERS had a meet to image Lovejoy before she fizzles out

This is my best attempt at processing so far, and it probably can be improved upon as DSS decided to throw a fit and wouldn't let me use RAWS, so these are Jpegs. I have converted the RAWS to TIFF and will try again later

Another issue i have is because i have a tree in the shot ( i wanted it arty), it won't let me stack more than a handful of images without rotation taking place
So this is just 2x 30 Sec exposures at ISO 1600

So its probably Grainy, but I like it because I have :
Foreground
Lovejoy
Milky Way
SMC
LMC
Morning Dawn
