Thanks silv! Have been waiting a while for this.
Yes I did crop the image - there was some vignetting in the corners, and I wanted to show as much detail as the 200kb limit would allow. I was quite pleased with how it came out especially at f2.8. I don't think I would be doing too much imaging at 16000 iso, but it sure is interesting
My next purchase (once the piggy bank refills) will be a portable tracking mount like astrotrac or starLapse.
