Thanks Michael, it was nice to be imaging again. I imaged a few other objects but this one ended up the complete set of Ha LRGB. The others are missing blue etc. LRGB imaging makes you a bit vulnerable as you need those 4 sets of images at a minimum to make an image. I have a Ha Eagle, part of an Omega Centauri, most of a nice NGC 6121 (quite a nice Glob, also called M4). I was all set to use the 180 with the Apogee U16M camera on the 3rd night which weatherwise promised so much and delivered so little! It seemed to be mostly clear all day and the clouds rolled in after dark which is unusual, often the opposite at my site.

I was thinking NGC6188 or Rho area, perhaps concentrating more on the blue nebula region or even Corona Australis.

Thanks Mike, its been a while between images. I am hoping the weather improves plus I am moving in the next few months and it should have dark skies so I will be imaging from home more.

Wonderful image Greg. The new scope certainly produces the goods. This is one of the nicest Trifids I have seen.
Great work.
Thanks Doug. I'd say the Aussie dollar is likely to conitnue to go up overall (my 2c).

I checked some other subs and I don't see that elongation. So I am thinking it may have been tracking errors.

I did trash a couple of hours of subs because of poor focus and tracking errors.

Greg.
