Centaurus A and Eta Car

About a week ago we (Mark Bateman and myself) finally got to do some imaging. I have had a week on holiday and the chance to spend some time processing the images. I am submitting my efforts for for any advice and comments. We had a bit of trouble with Eta C - the camera body came up against one of the legs of the tripod but we didn't realise, lost a few shots, too excited at seeing a clear sky.

Cent A is a stack of 5 shots at 4 minutes and one of 7 minutes (forgot to watch the time). Stacked with Deep sky stacker with 2 darks and 5 flats.

Eta C is 3 shots of 5 minutes, 2 darks and flats using Deep sky stacker.

Processed with Gimp. Camera is an unmodded Canon 350D through an ED80 on a HEQ5 guided with PHD Guiding.
