Surprisingly good for such a low total exposure time. Lucky imaging has some impressive results. It seems like a lot of processing work though?

Thanks very much Greg,
Yes very pleased with the result considering my heavy skyglow and my recent problems with the optical train.
It did capture 90 subs and discarded 15
As far as processing this image, my set up is fairly straightforward and doesn’t take too much time
Review subs In Astap ( about 15mins )
Load subs register and stack in Deep Sky Stacker ( about 20 mins )
Processed stacked file in Startools (about 1 hour 30 mins )
Total time about 2 hours or so
Cheers
Martin
