War and peace - NGC6537

It's hard to resist a cold, still, dry night - even when there's a 50+% moon in it. I decided to see if I could push my rig to 20 minute subs tonight and chose War and Peace for the test:

8" Bintel Newt with a Moonlite focuser;
Titan Mount
SX OAG and SXVR_H16.
9 x 20 minute subs (DSS, PS6)

I tried the same target the previous night with just 5 minute subs and the difference is chalk-and cheese.
