Crux, Coalsack, Eta - 5 min on the Polarie

I'm not sure about this one - I like it, but not sure if it's too busy.

In any case, it's a bit of an experiment because it's a single 5-minute exposure on the Polarie, with the Canon 6D and 50mm lens @ f/2.8, ISO3200.

I didn't use the polar scope, just the polar meter (great addition!) to align so I was pushing to see how far it would go without trails. Very impressed.

I took about 10 shots of 1-2 minute exposures, and will stack them later and see how they look. This was just to see how a single 5-min exposure goes.

Feedback welcome.
