Thanks Peter. I brightened the background a little, so it might show the background better. There is plenty to see there but I might have had it close to clipping for some monitors.
AS to the AG12 and OOUK, well they have tried to help here and there but they don't really know how to solve problems with imaging. They make the equipment but I doubt they actually do any imaging. I asked them to replace the rings on the scope as they were pretty average in finish. I have four on the scope but they only sent two.
They have never apologised for any of the defects on the scope or given any real advice on how to get the corrector into the proper position, Secondary spacing from the spider or collimation related advice. Overall a disappointing outcome.

Perhaps the jet-like structure at one o'clock is coming toward us, and the corresponding one at the bottom is largely obscured behind the egg. One can see something at the bottom.

Thanks Mike, I have seen the jets in Mike Sidonio's image so they are there. His sensor is more sensitive than mine and hence why it is barely seen. Having doubled his integration time, but I don't seem to have capture it well. Perhaps the top one is facing more towards us and hence brighter as you suggest.
