Why wouldn't you be happy with this one, Jimmy! A great example of this colourful part of the Milky Way. 5 hrs spent on Rho has really paid off and taken from such a dark location has brought out it's best. Well done mate, what a start. :thumbsup:

Apologies. Late reply. I don't spend much time in forums.

This is taken with Optolong L-Pro in bortle 2 zone in Bookham, NSW, Australia.
There was a rather significant sky glow coming from Canberra but overall very minimal and easily processed out.
