I'm pretty lucky that one looks ok pete. It's all 2x2 binned so about 6"/pixel
I only have 1 usable 1x1 Lum which isn't enough

Seeing that 14C with 36odd KG of counterbalance wizzing around was certainly a highlight...doesn't it motor along when it slews  |
In hind sight geoff, I should have stayed on the SMC and waited for the clouds to clear there, and they did. There's really only 1.5 red subs in it

Sorry Mike, I wasn't that organised. I was really after CorAust then went looking for something big enough to fill the scope
M45 was a desperate attempt to keep shooting after clouds covered the SMC
It also went behind cloud around 4:00

It could have been framed better pete. It runs off the image there and I cropped the right off to balance it up. There seems to be more of it when looking from your place than my back yard
A bigger scope and camera would be nice too
