NGC 2070 QHY8 during Full Moon

With few little nights we have now without smoke and haze in Victoria, i managed to image the Tarantula nebula during a full moon.
Still came out pretty good considering the high contrast background from the moon and some haze.

Exposure was 8.5 minutes with the QHY8, scope 14" RCX at f5. No Flats, Darks etc
Quickly processed with MaximDL and photoshop, then passed thru Noiseware, and binned 3x3.
