Thanks MentalA things went well and the seeing was good. I found the Horsehead neb, and yes zeta orion is a nuisance - I walked the scope down from Q Ori, where the four small stars form a line through the Horsehead area. Pretty pleased with the sky tonight up here, probably the best its been since winter, what with all that smoke and rain. Moved over to the Flame and Orion nebs, then on to the Tarantula and the LMC. Good couple of hours. I used both my 15mm and 9mm EPs, don't have a 13 but I am about to buy a 12. I tried the OIII filter but the NPB seemed to be better on the Horsehead.
