Thanks Mike. Still can't get over how much this looks like a dolphin head!

Thanks! Learning how to tame the aboration on the stars with this scope. Definitely only a NB scope. At 714 FL and a non reduced flattener it works!

Thanks! Even up at Wiruna dark sky and using IR/UV there was almost no nebulosity at all! Thank goodness for the duel band o3 ha filters.
