Really neat image as is - should also look great as an Ha RGB.
Cheers Ray, you know me, like to image less well known targets most of the time I'll have a crack at an HaRGB and see how it looks

These SMC and LMC nebula make very interesting imaging targets and are rarely imaged. They really suit the SX694.

Hmmm? should you have gone to specsavers Greg..? ...seriously, I guess there is some vague similarity but yes NGC 456 is different to NGC 346 and I recon probably a little more interesting appearence...?

I agree shooting the various nebs in these close galaxies, especially in the LMC, is something that could keep me busy for the rest of my days
