Centaurus A - 4 hours

Beginning to get more of a hang of the mount, and I finally had the patience to spend more than an hour or two on one target . Centaurus A with 150mm f/5 Newtonian, 49 x 5-minutes, ISO800, EOS 60D. Taken from suburban Sydney, I was pretty happy to (just) catch the jet, a bit of the halo, and a few details in the dust and starclouds.
