Out of curiosity, how much did you have to crop off the top of the frame? You’ve JUST missed Sn1987A and I’m hoping it JUST makes it into your frame
I’ve compared Hubble against my latest Tarantula attempt and I was really disheartened that I couldn’t keep with my a multi-billion dollar space bound telescope

Thank you...I certainly checked out many renditions on the web to make sure my data was reasonable...it was only then that I realised there are not
too many high-res versions to be seen.
A few things in my system came together nicely for this one: good seeing, great thermal control, perfect optics, excellent mount and large aperture AO.
I also had a quick look for SN1987a....maybe! ..but think I was looking at the wrong location, so will see if I can get a better reference on my "to do"
list
