Thanks Steve. Yes I suspect with tenuous nebulosity it should be able to grab some pretty faint stuff with extended exposures.

Truly lovely Pete!
To say you'd be pleased would be an ultimate understatement!

Ta Rich. I know Eta is overdone but it is such an interesting field, seemed like a good place to start.

30 minutes is all I had available.. My usual combination of work committments and clouds makes imagaing in Sydney a PIA of late...might need to retire and move West!

It's almost impossible to believe that such detail could
come from just 3 x 10 minute images.
I love the wide field.
Eta Carinae was made for your scope!

It puts about 4x as much light down the pipe as my AP155 at about the same focal length...so I guess I should not have been so surprised.
I've got a few days off now...but looks like mother nature isn't going to co-operate again!
