We can't see that nebula from Southern Australia.

Thank you...I think the Ha back drop really make the dust hang there

The stars in this field are a bit of a night mare ...everything else can very easily get lost

Greg.

I could say the same thing about soooo many objects down South...I guess the grass is always greener on the other side

Thank you...yes I decided the have the camera this way around when fitting it but to be honest the field is so wide and with 9000 by 7000 odd pixels the camera can be cropped to fit most things....it just kills the PC when processing...this data set was just over 14Gb and took 3days of processing...some of the process iterations took up to three hours each to do.... I had to keep walking away and leaving it to do it...I drunk a lot of tea
