Las vega

Hi all, I have spent the last few weeks trying to get my less than perfect set up ready for astrophotography. I have a celestron nexstar 102slt, with a new dovetail and rings to achieve balance with the dslr. Obviously the weather has been awful for viewing, but tonight I caught a break. I managed 8min on albireo and 6 min on m57 (uncropped so lurking down towards the bottom right of frame) I've tried to process with GIMP, but i think i'm missing a trick, despite reading threads. However I'm dead chuffed with the results and know I have caught the bug and need to save for an EQ mount.
