Thanks everyone.

The first image is NGC300 with all the Ha patches.
The second is a weird galaxy in Eridanus/Fornax NGC1398 which is described as flocculent meaning no obvious arms.
The third is NGC1512 another strange galaxy in Horologium with a spindly arm owing to interaction.

My setup is pretty simple, a big scope on an EQ6 which autoguides perfectly at its payload limit too. I have a big DIY blue dew shield that works really well

Regards, John.
