Omega Centauri @ 400mm
Enjoyed doing this one, 15min subs and loads of incremental masks for the core.
Cheers
Doug
ps...been experimenting with an external aperture masks to stop down the lens (tight stars / no star spikes) hence the 15min subs.

Doug IMO you have done well not to burn out the core much seeing as though its only 400mm f/l
