All taken using a K1ii & DFA150-450. All at 450mm f5.6 ISO1600. Fifty shots were taken of each subject, after culling the dross I put them through Deep Sky Stacker and it chose the best 80% of what was left. Cant remember the final figures except Andromeda which was 40 shots stacked.

All I can say is I wish I had the skill and patience.
Great stuff, Steve.

Top stuff!

Too much light pollution here but, even so, I'm tempted to have a go.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
