A great start Rick, The Crux pic is very good - the coal sack and a couple of clusters are evident.

How are you focusing the camera? Most modern lenses can go past infinity. I have seen people use a focus mask and tape the focus ring. Also, how long were the exposures. I presume you're unguided with these?

Cheers
