Great Carina Nebula with Homunculus

After seeing Mike Sidonio's image of the Key Hole and the Homunculus recently I found it was just the impetus I needed to undertake this long held goal. I have long enjoyed the view of the homunculus through a large aperture telescope and have always wanted to image the nebula with the surrounding field. So I set about recollecting the data with a better composition than my last effort. Guiding was better with some nights of quite good seeing.

This field of view incorporates the Mystic Mountain, The Key Hole nebula, The Homunculus and the Wall of the Carina Nebula.
