Thanks very much. It's been a long road the past three years to get to this point. Those round stars and dark nebula detail cost a lot of time and money!

I do have plans to capture more data and get the RC8 image over 2h each filter although it's a little challenging at the moment with the weather here. I only managed one 10 min sub before it clouded over last night. If the subs are any longer, I risk picking up a cloud which is unfortunate as I've seen some wonderful images with subs over 20 minutes that pick up the faint nebulosity. I have to work with what I have.

Forgot to add most of this data was captured near to full moon. even the 12nm HA seemed to manage well - very little background light pollution.

I'd really like to capture a galaxy between full moons. I'll come back to this next month when I can't collect RGB.
