Here is the Lagoon nebula I captured from a combination of images taken Fri and Sat night.

Still don't have autoguiding so I have to keep subs short.

Modified Canon XTi, TV 102mm
160 x 1 min exposures @ ISO1600
Stacked and processed in ImagesPlus

Small 790x600(656k):

Pretty nice for only 1 minute subs and un-guided. smile
A little dark on my monitor (not calibrated) so you might be losing some of the fainter regions.
