Fab image Dave. The Bubble looks 3-Dimensional too. There are some great colours in there. Looks like you caught a satellite trail to the right of the image too.

Thanks for the comments guys.
Dave L: I use a Baader MPCC coma corrector, It's not bad but is better at f/5 than f/4. What I really need is a televue paracorr which is designed for f/4 however they are big money and after shelling out 1.8k on the new camera it will be a while before I can dip into the funds again:)

F4 is certainly fast, you would be doing very well to get a perfect field at such a speed.

Yep unfortunately they are almost 'the vermin if the skies' nowadays. Almost every imaging session has one or more satellites trailing across them. If you've been able to collect enough frames you can sometimes afford to drop the ones with the satellite trails. Most times unfortunately you have to use them. Some people clone them out, however I'm not a fan of using a clone brush for anything more than removing the odd hot pixel or cosmic ray particle strike.
If they keep sticking stuff up there at the current rate there will come a time where the entire sky will be ruined for astrophotography.
