Here's Dumbbell Nebula, M27 taken with a modified Nikon D5300 on a C11 with a Starizona 0.63 reducer/corrector.  14 x 6 minutes at ISO 400, stacked with DSS and finished with PSCS.

 

Thanks for looking, comments and critique are welcome of course.

I like the image and the pin point stars!

Something tells me there might be more nebulosity. Have your tried separating the image from the stars?

Thanks everyone!  I was happy with the stars on this, and I didn't try to separate the image.  A hard stretch didn't show anything worth pursuing really, with only 1h 24m integration time.
