NGC5139 Omega Centauri Wide view

Hi everyone

We have had four great nights for asatrophotography along the Mornington Peninsula. I was only able to image last night at the Briars Mt Martha. I captured this majestic celestal object NGC5139 using my friend's 80mm Orion "ED80". I must admit there is something about wideview astrophotography I really enjoy!.
Details:
ED80 ?F/6.5
Focal reducer/corrector x 0.85
2 minute subs x 10
Dark frame only
Pentax K-x @ 800iso
Unguided NEQ6pro
Processed = DSS, PS CS2.

Best Regards Paul
