Moonlite NGC253

Have been woefully inactive for about 24 months and had decided to get the observatory up and running in conjunction with SGP. Finally got all the bugs ironed out and like a puppy dog the dome now follows the scope to within a degree or so.
Anyway the moon was up and I decided that the easiest target was NGC253 so I managed over several nights to get enough data -2.5 hours of luminosity but very little RGB using my 5" refractor.

Looks good Allan. How are you imaging in QLD? I heard the weather is just perfect for escargots right now.
