Longer the better I say.. I did quite a few 20min subs of 3372 about a month ago now, and they were unreal.. so much signal and so much extension in the nebula it just wasnt funny!
I look forward to your Eta Car. and also to the re-pro's of your 2070 when they come about.. (my best edits of my images usually come after about 2 weeks of trial and error.. I either find what works well, or just throw in the towel depending on the data..)

Where I lived before moving here I couldn't do any more than 6 min subs after that it was like fog had set in .... so much light polution it wasn't funny. I only lived 2 kms from city centre of Perth.
Here is like moving to heaven .... the sky is just amazing on a clear night when there's no moon around. It's also very peaceful .... just me and the sheep
