First couple of weeks with new ED80

Hi all,
Here are some of the first images I've got out of the Skywatcher ED80 I recently bought from leon.
Been struggling a bit framing the subject as you might notice!!!!
Still, I'm having fun.
Most images are stacks of 30sec iso800 exposures, some are iso1600.
Processing these for too long to care anymore!!
Went crazy with software spikes too(First M6 looks like a dog's dinner - had to ReDo!!!)
1.M8/M20
2.Eta Carina
3.M22
4.M6 - Butterfly Cluster
5.M7 - Ptolemy's Cluster
6.Antares
7.M6 - ReDo

Cheers and be gentle...
Doug
