Not easy from suburbia but I managed a good 6 hour run on this last night using:
SharpStar 61EDPH [.82 reducer)
ZWO UV/IR Cut filter
AM5 mount
Guided with 120mm and ASi120MM Mini
I did it in 600 second subs (so 40 in total)
Processed in DSS, PS6

I enjoy this object and if the sky is kind tonight, plan to do the same again but with an Optolong L-Enhance filter instead.

I said I would do this tartget using an Optolong LEnhance filter. This one cut a bit short (only 2.5 hours worth of 10 minute subs) but it certainly shows up the Ha regions that are hidden in the SMC.
