A cool night in SE QLD .

I've been wanting to give Omega a crack ! After fighting with tracking and focus issues ( Frustrating) I came up with this attempt. Seeing Startrek ( Martin's) fine single shot I could probably do with some more data however Shooting from an suburban location ,I have lost a lot of stars in an attempt to darken the sky.I'm unsure of the balance?? What do say?See comparison. 60 lights x 2 sec. 1 dark x 2 sec. (The darker Pic has had curves in Gimp2)
Scope "Zamar" 20" F5 . Camera Olympus E-PM2 4/3 mini at Prime Focus.Temperature. 7.5 degrees.
