Thanks Mike. It turned out better than I expected (thanks gradientxterminator). Probably worth going back and getting high res luminance but now it's turned cloudy again.

This area might be worth a shot with your new scope.

Thanks Paul. I'm actually in Canberra. The last time I was in Ceduna was for the eclipse.

Its one object that Ive wanted to image properly and if its clear tonight I will give it a go. Thanks for inspiring me.
Thanks Allan. I would keep your exposures relatively short. The centre of this galaxy is very bright and you run the risk of burning out the jet if you go too deep.
