Very deep Eta Carina Neb in Ha

Used the 6 inch Schmidt Newtonian Cometracker tonight, with plenty of moonlight and the Ha filter to take the deepest Ha image Ive done with the 6 inch. 1.25 hours total

5x15mins ISO400, Idas uv/ir and Baader 7Nm Ha filters. MPCC coma corrector. 6 inch F3.6 meade Cometracker scope, hand guided. Image masked in Photoshop after processed with flats, dark and offset frames in Iris as usual. Hutech modded 350D used. Quickly processed will see if I can improve it later on. Would no doubt get less noise with a cooled camera, though as quite chilly wasnt too much noise visible in the dark frame tonight.
