Hi Rolf,
This is not only an AMAZING piece of work, it is also a beautiful piece of Science and Art. Well done!
Just a word of caution when talking about the faintest object - this is really difficult to assess as the word "faint" has to be associated with a well calibrated magnitude. Paul Boltwood, Ken Crawford and myself have done imaging of 10 hours and more, I hold the record for the most distant quasar imaged with an amateur telescope. When I declared a 27 magnitude galaxy I was cautioned by a professional astronomer due to above mentioned reason, and he is right. So the word "faintest" is a very difficult term.
I really applaud your effort and great result.
