That is a beautiful image Sandy and wow, roughly 20 hours of data, that is some dedication to a single target!
I've seen other folks that have imaged this and never even thought about it because I assumed it was a Southern sky target. Seeing you are in the UK made me look it up and I'm amazed that this is so far north and I've never imaged it. Thanks for the inspiration...now I just have to figure out a way of clearing out these clouds!
