Was planning on getting another night on this (albeit nights are short ATM).  This was supposed to be a practice process, but since the skies aren't going to clear for at least a week and then it will be full Moon, decided to post up as is.  This is the first time I have imaged this target (one of the few I haven't done previously).

Taken over 2 nights just before summer solstice so very little darkness from Home.
