I like the colour very much.
Really well done.

Thanks for the kind comments Alex - appreciated.
The Askar 400 has proved to be a very nice little workhorse. For me, 400mm is a sweet spot for wide field imaging, but with the Askar 0.7x reducer the scope becomes useable at 280mm f3.9 - the SMC image was done at that focal length.
So, I’m happy with it
