haha. I actually probably wouldn't have chosen this framing given the choice, but I needed a new target after NGC 1313 had set. I do have automated rotation, but the cables aren't set up to do that safely, so I only rotate when I'm physically at the scope.

Thanks Andy! Yeah, I
might do a bit of M42 as well, but I don't really want to do a mosaic and my FOV is still pretty small so I'll have to carefully consider how to compose it.
