The top spiral arm swings around faintly on the left a long way. Its just noticeable in the image.

LRGB image, Starlight Express Trius at -20C, CDK17, PME, SBIG STi on a MMOAG.

I am about to hook the Trius up the .66 reducer which will give it a bit more field of view and also make it somewhere between F4.54 and F5.
