First NCG3372. Happy...

Here is my first stacked Eta Carina. Only used 30 second exposures at ISO1600. Pales into insignificance compared to the big boys, but Im happy!

You can see the distortion from the megrez in the corners - I need a field flattener!

Great result, Tim. Field flattener will certainly make a difference

Im jelous. Looks great to me. I had my 1st try at eta carina at the last Snake Valley club night. I need better polar alignment or tracking. Puts my 1st effort to shame. Great job
