I got some more data

It took a while, with the weather and all, but I have taken some more pics to add to my first attempt at this galaxy. I managed to get an additional 2hrs worth of exposures at 10 mins each. This image was 4 nights work plus another to process it! I also tried a different processing method, which did a better job handling the noise.

25 x 5 min exposures and 22 dark frames.
12 x 10 min exposures and 17 dark frames.
10 bias frames all at 1600 iso.
Total 4:05hr!

Images captured in BackyardEOS, stacked in Deep Sky Stacker and processed in PS5, using Scott's DSLR-LLRGB Style Processing Workflow.

Comments always appreciated.
