California nebula

Another low northern target "done" with barely enough time to see much.
This is 3*120s for R G and B, 3*240s for Ha. Ha used as luminance. Total integration is 30mins at 139 gain zwo 1600mm, F5-ish william optics ZS81 with flattener

This was taken from Canberra astro society's northern dark site, about 45min from home. The views to everywhere except the south west are very good and quite dark.

I wish I had a camera angle adjuster on the zenithstar81! Maybe a Christmas gift idea I really didn't want to spend time rotating in the rings and then rebalancing.

Anyway, I can see it! Anyone else given this a go this far south? It's a bit higher than Andromeda, but lower than triangulum galaxy (which I spent most of my time on last night).
