Thanks Humayun. It is quite a bright galaxy. We are lucky with the number of excellent objects to image here. NGC6744 is high on the target list now.

I have an adapter that needs to be redone but is a work in progress to attach a Tak 1.6X extender to do just that. Not sure if it will work but

Thanks Dennis. Its amazing isn't it how many galaxies a simple amateur scope can pick up. I imaged Mike's Grus Galaxy quartet also and the number of background galaxies is fantastic.
