I was wondering what sky brightness you had when imaging to get the very dim limiting magnitude ?

Nice work! I used the PI annotation script and it noted PGC687110 but not PGC3169353.
One night out of five was at a pretty dark site (Glen Aplin.) The other nights were at Hazeldean and Ten Chain Hill which aren't far from civilisation and aren't exceptionally dark.
