Thanks for all your nice comments everyone.
I think I was a little heavy handed with NEAT image especially since I didn't take any flats,
I know, I know Itchy, one day I'll start.

The lens Tony (Itchy) is quite good but not perfect so I used a Lumicon Minus Violet filter to cut the CA back.
I've attached a closeup of the hi-res version so you can have a look. Also Robby here's the LINK to my hi-res version approx 2MB (I don't have more storage to put up the full TIFF).

Also a big thank you to Houghy who assited me in getting fairly close to polar alignment, it's a basic mount so the trails are evident.

Striker the images are going to come using the TAK, I have to learn to crawl before I walk and finally run, bear with me dude,
Don't let my daughter see you asking for the TAK she'll freak....

I've also attached a slightly different version in which I adjusted the colours a bit more.

Hope you enjoy.

Cheers.
