Just looked at this a little more and think I got Andromeda and The Coathanger in this one?! Its only tiny but it's there I'm sure?

Andromeda Galaxy is easily visible. I think can make out the Coathanger too.

A lovely view of the Milky Way.  Yes that's definitely the coathanger (a bit smaller than mine!)

Do you have any other exposures and have you tried stacking them?

I did have a try but they didn't seem to work....I might have another go.

My Coathanger is a LOT smaller than yours!
