Good idia using just luminance too, as your camera is getting the full spectrum of light, vastly exceeding the QE of schmidt plate film.

Thanks Scott

A deep multi night exposure more natural looking version ala my deep Cen A was my intention...buuuut time and patience and weather and the hassle of my portable rig got the better of me in the end .

Yes I haven't seen another amateur (or pro come to think of it..?) image that shows these features either
