Cheers John, yeah the seeing was ok, makes a difference imaging at 0.83"/pix compared to 3.5"/pix, I hardly notice variations in the seeing with the wide FSQ-16803 combo.

I'm glad to see that you took on a less well known target.
Maybe that's what the amateur astronomers should be doing?
There must be many galaxies out there which would be worth
a better pic than whatever is currently available.
I wish we would have had a dozen Hubbles out there -
not one that will end its life soon.
How many 1000s of galaxies remain unimaged at even the resolutions
& high quality that you have demonstrated?
If you look here - it's great many:

Yeah, I like to image different things and I think I will be on galaxies and maybe a PN or two, with the AG12, for a while now
Great list that Al
