Triffid & lagoon nebula

These pics were taken on the 27th of june through my lx90 with homemade focal reducer, Focus was aided by a 2.5x right angle finder attachment for my canon 350D. Pics were best of unguided shots.
Triffid nebula 1@120s &1@ 150s All @iso 1600 stacked in registax
Lagoon nebula 1@150s iso1600

Will try to take more shots in future to allow more stacking. Despite minimal enhancement pics are very much as they were taken .Canon 350d does a great job.

ps will try a hair net over the end of the scope next time , to give nice diffraction spikes on the stars!
