Hi Ross
Thanks for your comments.
I am using normal mount comes with GSO or Bintel 8" reflector scope with R.A. drive motorised drive. Last time I was managed to get 3-4 minutes perfect tracking with rough polar alignment. Once I learn drift alignment, I think it can go more than that. Focusing is just trial and error, once I get perfect focus, I locked the focusing and use the APT tools to take the photos.
We meet at Dural Ponny Club every Friday which is not far from you.
Regards

I like the colours in your Trifid Nebula.
What mount are you using and how are you focusing?
Thanks.
