Turn the NPB filter onto the Carina Nebula next chance you get.

Try for "Hind's Crimson Star" (R Leporis) not too far from Rigel.
Will do that Eric Oh, did try for R Leporis, but it had sunk down behind the giant grapefruit tree . Earlier, when it was up, the neighbours had to leave their backdoor lights on for quite awhile (only about ...5 m from me).

Yes, was great to be out there again, and will only get better up here now.
Just got a little toy in the post ... a zoom Skywatcher Ep - didnt cost much so prob pretty crappy, oh well, look forward to trying it
