the Sky did not Co-operate, and supplied me endless clouds and poor visibility.
I shot the target too low in the sky, as I was giving the best time to Centaurus A Galaxy.
my mount was having Declination issues which resulted in poor guiding.
30 second subs with a 2600MC
Takahashi FSQ106 and CEM-120 iOptron Mount
Processed in Siril and Affinity.
I will get it better next year.
