Crux widefield from Qld AF

More widefield with the 450D and nifty 50 from Astrofest. I followed Crux down until it got near the cafeteria chimney one evening. This is an hour and 5mins of 5min subs, ISO 400 f/3.5 (before JJJ educated me on the benefits of stopping down further )

I've tried to bring through detail in the dark nebula/coalsack structure as well as portray some of the Ha in IC 2944 (albeit using a standard "unmodded" camera).
