Glad you like it Steve. Skies are relatively clear but there is high humidity at the moment and fog forms quite easily. I am hoping for a drier and cooler breeze from SE

Glad you like it Mike. Doing what I can with my 105mm and foggy nights...

Thank you Mike and Trish. I hope there will be a bit more signal in the outer regions in OIII. I may need to invest in a 5nm Ha or perhaps in a narrowband nitrogen filter...wouldn't mind having a go at exploring planetary nebulae with my small refractor.

EDIT: Found this link to a website showing Ha and OIII. It looks like I need to add more Ha to highlight the outer bits a tad more...
