What's with this cloud! Skull & Cross Bones Nebula first light 103 apo

Hi all.

I can't believe the cloud. I'd say the worst run on non clear nights ever! I took 3 hours of the Skull & Cross bones nebula before this cloud blanket was rolled out! Its about 15 Ha 15 Oii and 5 Sii with 533mm Antlia filters and my new Askar 103 APO.
From what I can see so far the scope did a good job of gathering light in a small amount of time. Flat from edge to edge and stars perfect. On a side note when in installed the filter wheel I noticed I had installed it backwards so all my previous images since I moved to mono were not quite right. Lol. Backward filters make your images prone to halo and warp the light slightly.
