NGC2070 a work in progress

Grrr, this weather is sooo frustrating. I can't get to complete this thing before moving on. The way my kitchen observatory is arranged, I have to move the setup around to get different objects. Due to cloud, I haven't had a chance to get more data since December. It's begging for a few hours worth I reckon, going by the 24 minutes I've captured here. Despite only 24 minutes, there's a surprising amount of wispy, bloby bits of nebula that pop out.

Pleeze eggscuse the noise, I've squeezed it for all it's worth. Astronomik CLS filter, 8x3 minute subs at ISO400, Kson ED80 @ F5.5, full spectrum modified Nikon D70s, HEQ5 Pro goto, air temp 26C. Got to get a cooler for this camera one day.
