LMC and Eta Carina
I'm tickled pink! I was contacted the other day by Guy Hurst, editor of "The Astronomer" magazine, asking if I would like to submit some images.
These are two of the three he chose. (the other was my recent Corona Australis taken at Astrofest this year)
After taking a good hard look at my original processing, I thought it best to start all over again. These are the repro's.

The LMC Taken at QLD Astrofest in 2009.
3hrs through my Canon Nifty 50 @ iso 800. 80 subs in total.
Camera Canon 20d, mount EQ5, unguided.

Eta Carina, this one was taken at Mr Ponder's Coolabine Observatory, December 2009. 18x5min, canon 20d @ iso 400, ed80, guided qhy5.

Congratulations
Nice Job on the photos. I was just looking for an auto guider when I saw your post, wondering which would be the best value for money. After seeing what you have done with the QHY5 I think I would be happy to purchase one now.
