Hi Dave,
That is one hell of an image. if we got a few clear nights together rather than rushing it in one night. Well your Results speak for themselves.
Stunning
Well done mate.

Stunning image Dave. I love the contrast between the many blue stars and the red nebulous background, makes for a picture with great depth.

LOL, you must have missed to two asteroidal discoveries just left of centre
You know when I got my automation software finished I reckon I'll be able to set up to take a set of pretty pictures like this and automatically slew off and catch a few asteroids and then slew back to continue the pretty picture imaging without any intervention. Best of both worlds.
Don't see any reason why not. The plate solving tools will allow me to reproduce the precise scope positioning.
Regards and Clear Skies,
Dave.

Well done mate, there is a lot blood, sweat, and tears (and probably a few curses) in that image. I think its your best image to date. Fantastic
