Ta for the comments!

To let you know, a good mate, Hickny, also had a go at Eta Carina with his 13.1" Odyssey AND saw them too, and without a nebula filter at that from his home in the inner west of Sydney!

I'll be having another crack at her again with the 8" f/4 scope we share, and my 10" f/5, when the moon is more favourable again. Nebula filters are really in a league of their own!

Scorpio is coming good for this season's winter viewing. The Lagoon and Trifids nebulae are gunning for a perv.
