Nice one Trevor,
Have you compared this with a star plot? Many of these do not plot close to "bright" stars.
Your image does show objects quite close-in.
Well done.

I love the diffraction spikes Trevor. Not a common object to image.

Well done.

Thanks guys for the feedback. I was just taking short exposures to focus downloading them to PC. Just lately the clouds keep rolling in ruining any chance of some serious work

Lovely pic, and especially because you have captured ESB 365 as well (just above it) - one of our best carbon stars!!

Thanks Dougie I'm thinking of doing some widefield unguided stuff weather permitting as there is a comp open on another site I belong too where the entry requirements are just down your alley. PM for details if interested.

Cheers
