Nice images Dave. Looks like you got some decent nights out. The galaxies look good and the processing is also very nice.

It is s tough time of year for imaging. I have just spent 4 nights on the mountain and barely got enough data to get a fair image of M81-82. Still working on it. The nights sucked for the most part with clouds and soft seeing.
