NGC 3372 - Great Carina nebula

Had another great weekend in my back yard and a few firsts.

When NGC 3372 was high enough, I pointed my ED80 to it and started the sequence.
Then I went to sleep.

The first time that I did:
- unattended automatic meridian flip and restart of sequence
- unattended tracking stopped when sequence finished
- unattended guiding stopped when sequence finished
- unattended scope parked when sequence finished

Details:
Mount: SW HEQ5 Pro GOTO
Scope: SW ED80
Main imaging camera: Canon EOS-M6 M2
Guide camera: ZWO ASI120MM mini on ZWO OAG
Acquisition software: APT
Guiding software PHD2 dev3
Stacking software: DSS
Post processing software: Photoshop

There is only minor processing as I want to keep it natural looking, surely I can pull more data out of it.
Any comments welcome.

Looking good, Wilco!

All of your firsts are things I'd like to do but have never gotten around to. Big congrats! Sleep is the best.
