Thank you Pete. It was a tough one, for me anyway, to balance the colours.

Thank you Simon. It is much easier to go deeper with pretty much unobstructed and darker skies. Set up the scope in the evening and let it do its thing the whole night. Loving it! It was a real battle in my previous locations light pollution wise and with strongly restricted views on the nightsky.

Thank you Mike. Funny, a very good friend of mine also likes to call me Sushi

Thank you Mike and Trish. I'm still struggling to see the Swan, or any bird really
I think with my setup getting around 10hours per channel bin 1x1 helps to highlight different regions with respect to ionised gas distribution. I also followed a very good advice from Rick from some time ago and combined the three masters into one Luminance, and it has helped a bit with the SNR.

Thank you Markus - I wanted to reimage this fascinating DSO for quite some time, and finally got a chance to do it again.

That setup is totally punching above its weight. I would expect that level of detail from a CDK17.

Thank you Greg. I believe narrowband can work quite well with relatively small apertures and even in a tropical coastal location like Proserpine. I feel where aperture really shows its advantage is RGB imaging.
