A red nebula in Norma

Hi all
Got this last night, 4x 20 mins ISO 400, Modded 350D camera UHC-S filter, with 10 inch F5.6 scope, hand guided. Larger version here

Its not too faint, yet ive not seen many colour images of it before. Its RCW 98 I think this is one of the best guided images Ive taken, stars seem round and sharp, the Coma Corrector really works well on the scope. There was no wind and good seeing, the mount was working well, and the guiding eyepiece was at a good angle for me to sit comfortably while guiding.
