Hi
Heres Eta Carina with the 300mm f2.8 lens from Bert, and Houghys cooled 350DSLR and CLS filter. 2x10 mins. Conditions not ideal, some cloud about. Will see if I can do better next new moon

Great image. Such accurate tracking for a 10 minute exposure. It's amazing how much difference camera cooling makes to noise.
