Carina - Revisited

I acquired a new (first) scope this past weekend

Carina Nebula revisited - It's an easy target

First Image from the new scope

Sky Watcher Evostar ED72 420mm f5.8, HEQ 5 Mount, Canon 5D MkIII iso 3200, 2 minute exposures (can't remember how many I stacked) Stacked in Seqator
Editing is whole new world, but I will get there, I am sure, hopefully, maybe

Still don't know how I feel about this one, I seem to get way to many stars ?, but I have definitely managed more of the nebula colour.
This will need to be re-stacked in DSS and re-edited

Good-
Got more Nebulae colour and detail
Got my polar alignment pretty good
Got focus pretty good
Pretty happy with my amateur editing

Not So Good
Seem to have an abundance of stars (may be over exposed or to long exposure time)
Got my polar alignment pretty good, but not spot on, need some more work on that
Missed focus by "that much",
Not overly happy with my amateur editing
Any way, enjoy, or don't
