Same old M104 / M83, different dude.

Hi all,

Just throwing up my last two efforts. These are my first real attempts at galaxies. I'm having guiding issues ATM which are reducing my data by about 50%, only using 10 out of 20 exposures at best which is really annoying. Even with those 10, I'm still getting bloated stars which I think is related to poor guiding, I'm not sure. Any advice is welcome.

300D, 12"Newt, no filters
M104 - 9x240sec flats,lights, darks
M83 - 11x240sec f,l,d

Cheers,

George
