Deeper NGC 1360 with Houghys cooled camera

It was clear for the first time in a long time last night, so used Houghys cooled DSLR which hes left with me while he is on holidays with his family.

7x10 mins ISO800 10 inch f5.6 newtonian hand guided
Cooled 350D, sensor temp around 9 degrees (was a warm night)
Baader MPCC, Houghys CLS filter. Fighting a stiff noreaster, thankfully the house blocked most of it.

I managed to get that little hydrogen blob just under the nebula in the image. There was some banding in the images, so will use ISO400 next time as Ive never noted that in ISO200 or 400 shots
