Nice looking image Stuart, good detail in NGC 6744 and tracking seems spot on. Good Melbourne nights have been few and far between. Well done :thumbsup:

I enjoyed the composition of this object Stuart. The wide field perspective adds a pleasant dimension. The field does not appear flat however as some gradients/vignetting are present. Colour balance looks good. Certainly a keeper.

Nice shot there. I bet the AO7 is a nice bit of gear to have, wish theyed make an Ao system for DSLR's
