M20

Last night there was a break in the clouds up here in Brissie and no moon - a rare occasion lately. I decided to make the most of it. Here's M20 taken with the 400D/paracorr/10" newt. This is a combination of 6x1.5, 6x2 and 2x4 min subs making a total exposure time of 29 minutes. ICNR/no flats. I've had to do quite a bit of re-sizing and compression to get under the 200kb limit.

I am seeing a horizontal band near the bottom of the image with this camera - not sure if it is coming from ICNR or some post processing artifact - any ideas?
