Yes, Leyburn was very dark last weekend, an absolute pleasure to watch the Milky Way slide overhead until dawn on Sat and Sun mornings....

Cheers Russel, I like to keep at iso800 as used with this, kinda feel safer with noise levels and slightly better dynamic range than 1600, tho others have used 1600 with great results

All the best

There are programs to reduce star smearing a little in post from memory. You've got a LOT of faint galaxy detail there for sure

Hey Cheers Rob, I find that cheap optics give some stars both red & blue at various measures so i treat the blues seperately from the reds, unorthodox but still practical i feel. And yep, have a star smear fixer tute here somewhere, never thought at the time

Also lucky that guiding errors ran similar direction as dust lane, so not a major loss in most detail, kinda consider that very fortunate
