Trifid

Got a quick 1 hr in tonight before high whispy clouds rolled in.
I decided to up the gain on the Zwo294mc to 150 and lengthen exposure time to 4min subs.
For such short time I think its turned out reasonably well.
Any thoughts or advice is appreciated.

That’s a nice Trifid , good colour and contrast
Stars look a little bloated ?
It’s helpful if you include your telescope , mount , guiding details etc... in your post
More information the better, that way folk a lot more experienced that me can pass on advice etc...
Well done !
