The Eta the Centa and Tarantula

Had a good time last night experimenting with different stacking/processing methods though PS and registax and trying a few things with the D70. Stated off getting a good drift alignment happening , got it to a point where there was no drift in 5 min then completed RA pec training {wanted to do DEC training but that would have been a test of patience}. After all that i still had tracking errors , blast , but getting there.
First DSO was the Eta carinea neb , wanted a wide feild shot so i used my 300mm nikkor lens at f/5 /800iso , got 6 frames at 2 min each and stacked them first in PS { bit of a pain to do } then tried registax . Thought registax turned out better , heres the image , thought i would get more detail though.....
