Thanks guys.
There's something about the structure and 3D appearance of a dark nebula that really grabs me. I was hoping to arrange an unofficial star party last weekend at my favourite dark sky site to capture this (the old Orroral Valley Tracking station 40 minutes south of Canberra) but unfortunately weather got in the way. I'm in the middle of capturing another part of the Chamaeleon molecular cloud at the moment which includes reflection nebulae. These clear autumn nights are great for astrophotography, although with the waxing moon and my Bortle 5 suburban site, I might have to wait until next new moon to finish it!
