Heres some new images taken through the 6 inch f3.6 SN
12x10 mins ISO200. Quite long subs for F3.6 histogram was just to right of middle. Guided with the q guider putting star on the notebook screen as usual, with me hand guiding it. UV/IR filter and Baader MPCC coma corrector

The 2nd shot was the above image combined with an earlier one that is 14x10 mins ISO400 with UHCS filter but no IR filter, so what you see is a mix of everything, including some IR light. Total imaging time of over 4 hours.

excellent attempt scott, the second image shows the neb very clear. For 10 minute expo shots, you can fully tell how dim this nebula is! well done .

A great looking image Scott. It certainly is a faint nebula but you have done a good job with it.

Cheers
