It is clear that your attempt at the Eagle is heaps sharper than mine Colin.

The reason is probably a combination of the following:

1. 130mm aperture vs 105mm aperture. Even at the same resolution in terms of arcseconds per pixel, larger aperture should be able to resolve more detail).
2. Seeing (my location - coastal in the tropics, is unlikely to have better seeing).
3. Skills of the person processing the data

However, colours are way more pleasing in my attempt and longer integration seems to have allowed me to go deeper.
