Thanks Raymo. I guess I prefer to show everything that I can in an image. A modded camera shows more in the Red band (as you know), so I guess it's just a personal choice.

However, 70% of the nebula in this shot is invisible to our unmodded cameras as the light in the right hand side of the nebula is all in the Ha wavelength. The modded camera is showing us that there is ionised dust and gas that is invisible to the rest of our images. This is indeed why those that
A: are experienced enough
B: can afford the gear
shoot in LRGB Ha using a mono ccd.

You are right though some objects display more pleasing to the eye with un-modified DSLR's and there are others that are much better in Modded cameras.

Thanks Bruce. Hopefully one day I will be able to use a cooled mono as well.

Over all great job

Thanks Justin, I remember looking at some mosaics that you have done in the past, and thinking to myself.... one day I will be able to do some of them, and your right it's great fun. i think there will be more on the horizon soon.
