Fantastic resolution and the LMC looks almost solid.
I don't understand the glow area around the LMC. Are those stars or is it vignetting? Did you use flats? My guess is that is vignetting and needed to be flat fielded out. But it may also be a swarm of stars surrounding it that don't normally come out. I have also imaged the LMC with a similar focal length and an STL and I don't recall that swarm.
Lenses tend to vignette heavily with an STL. But you don't seem to have any coma so that is great.
Hand guided - wow, that was hard work.
Greg.
