Omega Centauri , M42 ,First Proper Images

First proper attempt at astro imaging ,conditions less than perfect ,setup ten meters from lamppost ,temp 27 -32 Deg Celsius , humid as can be.
Huge appreciation and thanks to ShoulderOps(Astronomyshed) for editing the the M42 image and providing me with the workflow to assist me with the process of editing my own images and general encouragement last couple of months to get me to this point, always prepared to share his knowledge , loads of data flowing between (South Africa & England).
The light pollution is terrible ,but my Baarder Moon & Skyglo filter really helps when used on my 80mm SW , unfortunately I can not use it on my 200mm reflector as my Nikon D7000 bolts directly to the focus tube.

Well here goes.

They're nice photos Andre.
I like the Omega Cent images (One of my favourite targets).
Well done. Must be satisfying.
