I'm sure I have more data on this tucked away somewhere on my hard drive. But I've processed what I've found. ( I swear I had at least 6 hrs worth)
3hr 30min of exposure time. 4min and 5min subs, ISO400 and ISO800
A real mixed bag.
I added some diffraction spikes to the second version, just for something different.

Nice NGC 253, JJJ! The second one with diffraction spikes looks bigger. Is that an optical illusion?

You must be happy with those JJJ. I reckon the spikes version is the best

Love them Nettie, but I go against the stream - no diffraction spikes

Noooo... don't fall into the trap, JJJ. Diffraction spikes are just evidence of data being lost

Oh, you should have been at AAIC Mike.
There was some lively debate on that topic over the entire weekend.
Thanks for commenting everyone.
