The short exposure and many images stacked approach worked well.

Thanks Greg! I don't think the short exposures were intentional in my strategy for capturing this one was my intention, it was a just a byproduct of the harmonic mount and terrible weather. I had a much high keep rate with the shorter exposures!

I'm trying to work out how many weeks in 7 hours of imaging, in my neighbourhood probably around 8 if I throw in the trees, mountains and cloud, maybe 12 come to think of it.
One day i'm going to find a nice place to park my mount where I get better than 1 hour.....One day.....
Thanks Leo! This was hard fought through all the clouds when I was imaging it, I wish I had kept a bit more data on the conditions, but I know from the relatively low amount of integration time compared to my usual, that my conditions were pretty bad.

I definitely feel very lucky that I've been fortunate to have the ability to prioritise some aspects of my living arrangements around this hobby.
