Fine features in the image seem limited by grittiness rather than focus or tracking. More data will fix that.
Looking forward to seeing more narrowband from you.
Best,

Thanks Mike! Can you elaborated a bit more on the colour? Do you mean the blue is too saturated, or do you mean there should be less blue in the image and more of something else?
Out of curiosity, were you looking at the Astrobin version, or the attached version? I ended up pushing the one on Astrobin a bit harder, making it look a lot more gritty. The attached one didn't look
too bad to me in that regard though.

Nicely framed and processed.

Thanks Rod! Where possible I try to dig up wider field images of a target before I image it so that I can plan out the composition in advance. Saves me time on the night and helps me make better decisions. I usually just search through Astrobin, or sometimes I use Stellarium for the really bright/common targets that it has images for.

Agree with the observation of more data.
The colour palette has worked and you've captured some very good detail.

Cheers mate! Definitely needs more data now that I've pushed it harder... one forecast is telling me tonight will have a few clear hours tonight, another not, so hopefully I can get some soon.
