RCW40 in Vela with 10 inch scope

Howdy
Went for RCW 40 tonight. Part of it appears in my RCW 38 pic with the 6 inch I took the night before.

Cloud ended proceedings after 40 mins of imaging. I was keen to go up to 2 hours. Oh well.

4x10 mins ISO400. LPS filter and MPCC coma corrector. 10 inch f5.6 newtonian. Off axis hand guided with Q guider cam.

Thanks all.
It was perfectly clear, then cloud just started appearing, it was literally condensing out of nothing, that went on not long after starting imaging, then finally a patch appeared in Vela, the guidestar dissapeared and it was game over.
