A few 200mm widefields

Hi all again..
Been having lots of clear skies up this way but horrible seeing so have decided to do a few widefield shots with my 200 f/2.8
Conditions are fairly clear but quiet a bit of smoke around and the seeing really bad.. It has even shown itself when you look closely at some of the frames with only 200mm!!!
Exposures were kept short to minimize seeing and gusty wind effects so they are not as deep as I usually like them, but not too bad I think...
First is M16-17 which is 20 x 2 min iso 800
Second is Corona Australis area showing all that lovely dark stuff with some reflection and a glob thrown in!
28 x 2 min at iso 800
All stacked in Deepskystacker and processed in PS.
Images are around 500ks in size..
