NGC1977 and NGC2070

Recently purchased the Qguider from Gama Electronics - what a fantastic easy to use guide camera. So much better than the webcam that I was using. So many more stars to choose - so much easier.

These are some recent images that I have taken and recently processed. Any comments, tips or suggestions greatly appreciated.

NGC2070 (Tarantula Nebula) details:
This was taken last year - but reprocessed this week
8" SCT @ f6.3
Taken with Canon 350d "EzyStyles mod"
20 x 180 sec @ ISO800 taken from suburban backyard
darks, flats and off-set taken
guided with Qguider

NGC1977 (Running Man nebula) details:
8" SCT @ f6.3
Taken with Canon 350d "EzyStyles mod"
15 x 300 sec @ ISO800 taken from suburban backyard
darks, flats and off-set taken
guided with Qguider
