Eta Carina - second attempt

well this one looks a touch better than the last
i touched up my drift alignment, still not 100% but its close enough while i'm still playing around. my good friend next door (....) had his flood light pretty much right on where i was set up so that didn't really help a lot.
nearly 3 hours of data here and its well worth it, i wish it was possible to upload the tif
i'll definately be going back over this one tomorrow with fresh eyes, i just wanted to get an eyeball on what i'd captured.

i'm not sure whats happening in the top left corner of the frame either, i don't think the darks are subtracting properly as i can see a fair bit of what looks like amp glow (??) before calibration. its almost like a bit of vignetting behind the amp glow, that corner seems to be black clipping in all of my images so far which is why i had trouble setting the black point.

anyway here it is.
