M16 from BSG (with poor guiding)

Hi all

Just a quick M16 in 7nm Ha from Wednesday evening at Border Stargaze. Seeing was a bit woeful as the sky came and went behind moist cloud layers all night. I had my guiding set too agressively, I think, and was chasing the seeing. Most of my 15 subs were junk. Anyway - came out OK I guess for less than 30 minutes of useful data collection.

Tak FS-102, SBIG ST-8i and 2" Baader 7nm Ha filter.

EDIT: Added false-colour red using Noel Carboni's "BW - Ha False Colour Black Space" Photoshop action.
