Messing around last night with the D40.
Centaurus A (NGC 5128)
Is this ok?

Oh, and forgot to mention - I couldn't figure out why the camera would be working / processing for so long after the photo! I'd shoot for 5min and wait another 5min for the photo to show up! So I turned off noise reduction, and I just started shooting in NEF (RAW equivalent I think). Much better - and fast!!
