There's a lot of detail in there not normally seen. Can it be sharper? Not with this data as I have maxed it but at another location under better conditions I think so. But its still pretty detailed. You may be used to widerfield images that look sharp but don't show that level of detail.

Having said that if this poor seeing is regular an AO may become quite important as the only road to improving sharpness. Also the reducer which I should receive at any time will help.

I was comparing with Peter Ward's recent shot of the same area and you've got way more aperture so you should be able to level his shot. This one doesn't. AO would be the go IMHO. I've seen shots taken with a 12.5" CDK way sharper than that too, taken from Penrith even. That's why I'm saying your scope can do way better under better seeing conditions.
