That's nicely processed Roger.  The colours are looking good.  Well done.

The image looks a bit out of focus which is a shame.  But astrophotography is like that - 2 steps forward and 1 step back

Agree with Mark, that's a shame, but I had lots of images like that at the beginning.  As Mark says

2 steps forward and 1 step back

, and as you are aware on the nights my mount was misbehaving, even after 8 years not without problems.
