Nova Sag DSS stack small

Nova Sagittarii 2015 No. 2 (an exploding star in Sagittarius, which was discovered on March 15th), photographed from my suburban Brisbane backyard this morning. For this image I stacked 10 x 8 second exposures (each taken using the Canon 6D and EF 35mm f/2 lens @ f/3.2 and 3200 iso) using DeepSkyStacker. It's surprising how much Milky Way detail can be pulled out after stacking, despite the Brisbane light pollution.
