How wide is your field?

Cheers M&T, glad you liked it

It's fun to search out something new - There's so much more to photograph than M42 etc. and it's exiting navigating unchartered waters!
My FOV is 3.07 x 2.39

I've noticed a few Ha areas in my own wide angle lens Milky Way images they don't seem to get imaged as well.
I also wonder if there is significant O111 for this target as SNR seem to have a lot of O111. Worth checking if you haven't already.

You're most welcome Greg, it would be a crackerjack target for your Honders.
John's reference posted that "there is little if any OIII in this object, and SII is nearly non-existent based on spectroscopic studies of individual filaments."
I had planned to get some N2 data to try bicolour, but clouds rolled in...

The dramatic twisted nature of the filaments is a little reminiscent of parts of the Vela SNR, nice work on a difficult target and I'm liking your more recent processing too  the arty composition look works well here too  .

Thanks heaps Mike
Yes, these SNR's are very cool targets imo - this one's well worth a crack when you get your Tak widefield on.
Thanks for comment re: processing too

- I was pleasantly surprised that the same technique used on my last HaRGB image under dark skies worked out well under LP at home.
I must also acknowledge Peter Ward for a few tips on imaging RGB under LP, cheers.

Cheers Marc, some French guy sent me a few tips on processing, seems that they were useful
Merci Beaucoup
