Eta Carinae in H-Alpha

Hi Guys - Here is a sum of 9x10mins in Ha of N-Car on the 4" Takahashi FSQ-106 and STL-11000m.

It needs a bit of work, but since Mike (IIS Sculptor) suggested I set the camera to -30deg not-20deg, my image quality has improved dramatically and my image noise has done a runner. Even better for future results, this is not perfect. The focus, polar alignment and a bad column all need looking at but I am really happy with the improvements from my normal output.
