Nice going Carl. Focus looks a little off compared to the 1st one.

I would concentrate on sharpening the skills for capturing and ensuring focus is good, correct exposure, good polar alignment and tracking (including guiding). When these start coming into play, then start exposing longer.

My own personal experience I have found frustration in trying to jump too quickly. Get the basic skills sharpened and this has helped me more than the software processing side. But that's me anyway.

Good luck!
