I've had a quick go at the running chicken but with about 4 x 5 min subs can only make out a hint of the brightest nebulosity and some bok globules with a lot of stretching of the data. I'm wondering if my unmodified camera is filtering out too much of the H-alpha.

Hi Marty,
Thanks mate - yes that was my last crack at the running chicken, I tried rgb earlier in the season but it was fairly ruined by wind. its now passing that tree...
Justin Tillbrook has done these with an unmodified DSLR

So they are indeed doable
I sent you a link in your carina thread on how to dig out the data i'm not sure if you had a go

Thanks Kev yep fighting dragons, running chickens - sounds like a bad dream!
Of course they are side on in my image and are usually easier to spot 90 degrees around.
600d is modified, 550d is not (yet), A7s is not.
cheers
