new Eta carina shot

Hi all
last week I took 2 x 15 minute ISO 200 shots of the Eta carina Nebula with the recoated 10 inch. One of the 2 shots had a tiny bit of guide error, so I wasnt in a hurry to process them, but upon doing so I was pleasantly surprised to see the stars look ok. I think this is about the deepest ive ever taken of Eta carina, 30 mins total imaging time with the modded 350D ,UHCS, and MPCC in place with 10 inch F5.6 scope. Dark subtracted in IRIS, no flats or offsets, slight vignetting taken care of with vignetting remover instead.
