Looking good so far, a lovely subtle neb complex by the looks of it, you even have a mini NGC 253 up in the top right corner

I wish you well with your new, old new camera

Bring on some Davies magic I say

Mike
Thanks Mike. It's not a showy target but I think it will come out nice - I may need to break my own "mega data" target for this one though!

Not a frequently imaged object. I'm looking forward to this one. The Lum is a great start.

Cheers,
Rick.
Cheers Rick - I'm already enjoying the retirement gig - no Sunday-itis tonight! . Of course the waxing lunar cycle has yet again coincided with some clear weather so it probably won't be finished until Jan.

Excellent news with the reduced workload and therefore increased productivity and more great pix from you.
Thanks Mike. Yes, sometimes the tastiest tidbits are had when you're roughing it off road! And you're quite right too, I will henceforth define productivity only in terms of imaging time! I may even start attending ASNSW imaging meetings!
