NGC2903 and Rosette Nebula

Wow it was chilly last night. Still getting to grips with my Heq5, polar alignment seems ok, 3 star alignment a little more tricky with the stars it suggests. But still only getting 2 minutes exposure without trailing, any more and not so good. Also still only using GIMP so processing does let me down but still, I’m quite pleased with these. 21x120 for Rosette, 25x120 for NGC2903, iso 400 plus darks and bias. 
I had to discard about 10 lights each target as I think I need a longer gap between images to let the camera settle from the mirror movement, currently I set at 5 seconds between frames but may need to increase that.
