Hi Paul, I'm glad my efforts have inspired at least one person.
Just a little point, M4 is a globular cluster, not an open one.
Good job with M44. Just one thing; the stars in the upper half
of your image are elongated away from the centre of the image,
which means that you almost certainly have camera tilt. Either the focuser is sagging in its drawtube, or the camera is sagging in the focuser, or both.
For future reference, when posting images it is customary to include details of equipment used and settings used, so members can help you improve your images. I have not done this with my oldie's images as they have all been posted before.
