I appreciate the encouragement Rod.

I did take another 3 or 4 subs of the LMC after that one but when I checked them the star images all showed trailing. It was at that point I realised the battery for the drive motor had died. (*Note to self: always have a spare battery*). This old mount runs off 9v - I realise if I'm going to get more serious about this whole A/P thing I'll need to upgrade my mount but it'll do for the moment while I ascend the learning curve a bit further.
