Red face Eta Carina Ha with FSQ106ED Some RGB added.

Well I finally got a clear night, even if the moon was near enough to full.
With all this I decided to try something in Ha and gave Eta Carina a go.
9 X 20 minute subs (Dark subtracted) Just a quick process for tonight.

Camera: QHY8 Cooled CCD 1 X 1
Telescope: Takahashi FSQ106ED at F5 (530mm)
Filter: Baader 7nm Ha
Processing: Stacking Images Plus, General Photoshop CS3.
RGB removed in Nebulosity2 Lum only kept.

The second image has had some previous RGB data added. Please disregard the rotation of the RGB as it was taken about a week ago and is only 8 min of RGB exposure.
