Now one question; if you have Honders why are you using an FSQ to image? Am I missing some info?

Thanks Paul...The Honders is a delightful scope, but I was wanting to get a decidedly wider field to be able to include the bi-polar nebula and frame it in an eye-pleasing way....so decided to take the little Taka out of mothballs
That said..Raki's (just posted) absolute corker of an image with a narrower field has made me re-think that notion
This object really needs SII...which clearly needs aperture, ultra narrow filters, time...and patience...it's the latter I'm often short of
