Smile Rho Ophiuchus Neb Region

Here's my effort from Sunday night's session.

Antares and Rho Ophiuchus Neb region - a very feature rich section of the sky.

This was taken through the 20Da and 85mm lens set at f/2.2, ISO 400, autoguided by PHD and the DMK.
A total of 11 x 4 min subs were ave combined (darks + flats applied).

I was dissapointed once again that PHD kept crashing on me but I was speaking with Houghy and he suggests that maybe my USB cable is too long and I need to use an active USB cable instead.
Will give that a go next.

I was hoping on taking more subs as I don't think 44 min at ISO400 is enough but alas I was too tired from the all nighter we had the night before at the pony club and so I called it quits.

Well as always thanks for looking and your comments and suggestions are most welcome.

I've uploaded a larger version here (470k).
