Thanks guys for the comments. Much appreciated!
Alex- I think the aim is to get the most out of the gear you have! I’m happy with how my ngc300 turned out and yes I love the long fl and big aperture advantage on these kind of targets, but I was also so impressed by your efforts and wonderful result with your own setup. Its a different but equally valid perspective on the same target. And yes every time I return to a target with more data and/or some new processing skills it gets a bit better again!
