Nice and clear this morning, pity about the moon and mossies.

A couple of shots this morning through the ED80 posing next to Hadar - Beta Centauri. The first is 25 minutes worth of subs with a full spectrum Nikon D70s + Baader UV/IR cut.

Since the nova is belting out heaps of Ha, here's a comparison through the same scope. This time with a 30nm Ha filter. It's certainly brighter in Ha than visible.
