Hi Chris,

Are you going to post a picture of your first non-planetary image?

Now I am under no doubt that the dark frame would have been good and not using the diagonal should have been a must, but here you go John (http://www.jumpers4goalposts.org.uk/images/Astronomy/Stars/FirstDeepSpace200403.jpg)

If anyone can help me identfy the background starts it would be good, I don't think there mag 14, probably more 11 ish.
