First session of 2019

[GraemeH]

First imaging session of 2019, and I'd almost forgotten what to do with all my gear.
M82 shot from my back garden (Bortle 5 zone).
Scope: Celestron Edge HD8
Mount: Skywatcher HEQ5 Pro
Camera: Canon 6D unmodified
Guide cam: QHY5Lii-c on Celestron OAG
Software: APT, PHD2, DSS, Photoshop
17 frames @ 300", ISO1600 calibrated with flats and bias, superpixel mode for stacking.
Feedback and constructive criticism welcome.

Wasn't fully happy with the first set of flats I used for this, so I took some more and restacked, this time with bilinear interpolation and not superpixel mode.

I think the background is better, but I'm not sure I haven't lost some detail in the galaxy.
