Well it's been 8 weeks since the last opportunity and I was hopeful of a decent night.


Mr Murphy had other ideas  :facepalm:


 


End result being only 2 subs off before the inevitable cloud rolled in.

Very noisy but I don't have any 600s darks in the library. Hope to start with flats very soon (hurry up FLO!)

Fabulous shot - especially with only 2 subs. I've always found it an intriguing galaxy and you captured the "feel" of it very nicely Paul. Well done. :)
