Thanks John, the framing on the 550d sensor with a 500mm lens fits most of the nebulosity and some rich star fields surrounding it.

That Tamron lens seems to do a decent job, very colours  |
Jealous? No need to feel jealous with the quality of work you produce Colin. Give me a permanent set up any day. I try and make the most of the gear I have. I don't even have a permanent place in the backyard to set up the mount. Too many trees on my block and surrounding homes. I move the mount around to wherever I can target an object. Carina just happens to be in the right 'gap' between the trees this time of year! The Tamron mirror lens is light enough to put on a small tracker. I think I did take this on Tuesday night, thanks for your reply.
