My journey as an astrophotographer

It is always interesting to look back to see how much one has progressed (or not!). Here are three shots of Eta Carinae I took over the past few years.
The first was taken in March 2014, using a modified Canon 40D and the second was using a modified 1100D in Dec 2014 and the final one was also taken with 1100D. All were taken using an ED80 on EQ6 mount.
I don't have the exact details, but the first and second had dodgy alignment and therefore only had short-ish subs. The last one took some fiddling but produced a far better result.
The journey continues!
