Is this at f/5? Looks pretty deep and the galaxy is very detailed considering your pixel size. Great image :-)

Thanks Chris; taking the corrector (0.95x) into account the effective focal ratio is f/4.8 (1.22 arcsecs per pixel).

Although and it isn't that big an issue, I see you had a slight registration issue, this has happened to me a couple of times too and makes the stars a little distracting in what would otherwise be a super image. It probably seems like a bit of work but it might be worth reproing to fix that

That Bunyip scope performs so well it could almost pass as a fictitious animal in its own right

Thanks Mike! Actually, there is no registration issue per se although you may be seeing some differences in diffraction glare due to the fact that I took most of the red on one side of the meridian and the blue on the other side. Due to minor differences around/in the entrance pupil there will always be some variation in diffraction (look at any bright star in an image and you can see that the diffraction pattern is not symmetrical).
