Thanks so much for the very concise answers, I will hopefully put this to practice on the weekend!

I will try to experiment with the amount I capture and post the results. I never even took into consideration the movement of sun flares so I will experiment.

Cheers guys

Thanks all,

I am having trouble with my mount at the moment, so I am going to sort that out and then it is back to it!

Really fascinating stuff. I would love to be able to do this myself!

Wow, lovely image. Will have to give pacman nebula a go.

That is spectacular, really beautiful.
