M20 with Repro at the end.

Last night started out looking quite poor with a reasonable amount of high clouds floating through. I couldn't knock back a half decent night so this was the result. Guiding was not as good as I had hoped for but I think it may have been a balance problem after working on the mount during the day.

The image is of M20.
7 X 10 minutes Luminance binned 1x1
5 X 10 minutes each RGB binned 2x2
Captured with QHY9 and QHY LRGB filters

Thanks for looking, comments welcomed

Not real sure about this second image but it shows a bit more of the reflection nebula that was missing in the first image.

The final image is the final repro I will do it is a combination of both images with a few tweaks.
