The reality is, given my suburban location, this needs double the integration time but it'll have to wait until next year. Details are:

SW120ED, ASI294MC, Antlia Ha-Oiii filter
88x240s = 5hrs 52mins (over 4 nights)
Integrated in APP, processed in PI and PS.

Thanks for looking. Alex
Very Nice! Do you have a high res version online somewhere? I really love to see all the nebulosity inside the "brain" up close.

I managed to image it earlier this year from Coffs Harbour, now that is Low on the horizon! I think my only saving grace was that the light dome of Coffs Harbour is no where near as intense as Brisbane!
