My first go at the new camera

My previous images were plagued with thermal noise, so I took the plunge and bought a QHY9 mono. Apart from the hardware conflicts, all has gone well so far. This image was taken with 5 minute exposures all binned at 1x1. 2 rgb and 5 luminance frames. The core is blown out so sorry for all the trapezium lovers out there, but I like the accurate portrayal of relative brightness.

It is worth noteing that I cannot use the MPCC at the moment due to bad spacing, and no flats were used because I have no way of taking them (exfso made box is on the way). I am enjoying the chalenge of monochrome imaging, and hope you all like my progress.
