Hi all,
I managed to get some Ha on this area about 2-3 weeks ago and have been waiting for the clouds to part.. had just one night last Saturday to get down some lum... will have to wait for the colour while this fickle weather passes through.
Great area of sky and one that is sometimes hard for me to get anything decent on at this time of the year due to it being our, 'windy' time. Not to mention the dust which causes bad haze in and around the SCP area.

This is a fantastic area near our satellite galaxies, lots of stuff to see and also the star field is so lovely and dense.

Here's a link to the B&W version so far..

Image details..

Scope- 10" F4.6 Newt.
CCD- SXVR-H16
Filters- 2" Astronomik L/ Ha (12nM)

Ha- 12 subs @ 10' exposures
Lum- 17 subs @ 7' exposures

Hope you're having better luck than me!

All the best
Rich
