M16 + M27 - first light with SW120 f5

Finally some clear skies in Sydney and a chance to try out my new (second hand) Skywatcher 120/600 f5.
Added some more data to M16 and had a quick go at M27.
First time imaging M27 and I can't believe how bright it is!

M16:
5x10min Ha + 5x10min OIII + 7x10min SII through SW ED80
1x5min Ha + 13x5min OIII + 20x5min SII through SW 120/600 f5

M27:
6x3min Ha + 7x3min OIII + 3x3min SII + 4x5min SII through SW 120/600 f5
