NGC 5128 Centaurus A

G'day all,

I had a great night last night, out in the observatory imaging NGC 5128 until 11:30pm and then left the scope going on other NGC objects for the rest of the night. A rare opportunity to be up late capturing some astro data

Also tweaked my polar alignment slightly earlier in the night, attempting to get my pointing accuracy back to it's former glory.

Here's Centaurus A:

Looks a little soft and contrast lacking on my work PC but at home it looked sharper and more contrasty ... so not sure if I've processed it quite right.
