Certainly showing some extensions there Greg and you have done a reasonable job of showing the Ha and some of the OIII structure as well, this is a hard combination to achieve, so not bad - cool.

Cheers Mike. You've been quiet on the imaging for a while. Are you planning some new images soon?

Do you automated the rig at all Greg?
Thanks Rob. No not automated but its next to my house. I have an ethernet cable I intend to run to the observatory so I can run everything from inside the house once everything is turned on. But when its all setup it just requires me to roll the roof back, turn everything on, frame the target, program the exposures, focus and start. I then check it from time to time as you never know - the autoguider stopped, clouds came over, who knows!!.

I imagine to get averything automated still requires someone able to physically service the setup from time to time. These setups are quite complex and its amazing how often something needs to be sorted even though it all worked the night before!

Greg.
