Pelican Nebula, Round one with my new ZWO mount and ASIair

Last night was a big night for me I got a little sleep before 9:30 last night. It took me nearly 3 hours to get the guiding working on my new ZWO gear and I still don't know how I did it! I got pics of 3 different objects. I liked this one the best, a big improvement over the pic I took a year ago. I think I might be able to do better on the colors. That's for next year.

Canon R full spec, Sigma 150-600C@600mm 20x240 sec exposures f6.3 iso3200
ZWO AM5, ASIair, guide scope/camera (this is what makes it possible to get 240 sec exposures, there is a big learning curve and I am learning)
