Had to keep stopping imaging due to fast cloud coming over, also cluster was nearly over the roof!
Very windy. 10 x300 secs with Canon 350D. The sky was crisp when clear.
Looked for the Comet, but could not find it, I thought I had found it but I think I imaged Murphak in error.
Having seen John's image, I now know what to look for at this time.

Great shot, Fay. :)
Very nice Fay !!
Looks like your image train was slightly off centre though. Might have been the weight of the Canon on the scope.
Thanks a lot Rick.
What is image train, Mike?
OK, I think this looks a lot better with a bit more processing. I did an alteration using layers, Soft Light & John suggested noise reduction, which seems to have worked well,

Great image Fay, and NO diffraction spikes. 8)
I won't go there. :-?

Yes, I think the second one shows a little more detail, and definitely has a more pleasing contrast range.
Yes, I'm quite pleased with that now
That's a nice image. I agree the second one looks better.
Thanks Mark.
You are very adventurous putting you tent up so late!
Another excellent image Fay, you're really getting the hang of this ...

Not at all - I'm betting on a full night of imaging then erecting the tent in daylight!
