Ha equipment is a PST, adapted to a 4" achromatic refractor with full aperture 4" C-ERF from Baader. The refractor is severely out of alignment, put aside that the focuser still is, too. Anyway, this setup gives stunning views (don't do that!) and also good resolution images. The setup (PST, achro, ERF) was bought second hand and was about 1000 Euros (~1800 AUD). Ha imaging is totally new to me, but I think that the setup is a really good start to this part of this great hobby!
Wow!

They're great images!

(I never realised the sun was just hot carpet!)
