Eta Carinas the flavour this week

I setup for a long exposure for once, started imaging, went inside, came out 90 minutes later, and CLOUDS!. Great, i checked the images and only salvaged 10 frames. I'll have to redo it again if the rains stops, stupid Melbourne weather, some roads got flooded, beleive it....
Anyway, still came out OK.
I used a 60mm f5 telephoto and exposure measured to 20 minutes, 2 minute subs.
Camera QHY8
I have to try and get a decent camera lens, as the 60mm is, well, lets just say cheap!.
Sorry the Quality is poor, but if you want to see a better version go here:

Image size was reduced down to 1/3 to fit constraints.
