Thanks very much Scott! Quite happy with the result! It's in portrait for the silliest reason.. the part of Orion that looks like a calamari- I wanted it head up and tentacles down. Then noticed the nebula above and thought it looks like a running man. Then I learnt it was actually called running man lol.
Cheers Phil! The hardest it was polar aligning the Skytracker, considering I never polar aligned anything before and was going by 'theoretically, this should work'. Tried the polar scope and just could not figure it out, so relevelled the tripod, dialled latitude to 27.4 degrees, and pretty much guessed South and adjusted and shot and repeated for hours before I could get a usable frame. This is a result of 37 30-second frames, at f/5.6, ISO5000.
