HF39 planetary in Carina

Hi all
First chance to do imaging in months tonight. Went for HF39, next to the Eta carina neb. Bright little planetary.
11x10 mins ISO400. Modded 350D and LPS filter with MPCC coma Corrector. 10 inch f5.6 newtonian. Hand guided as usual.

Best seeing Ive seen in a long time, stars didnt twinkle at all and guidestar was nice and stable. 2nd pic is a full res. crop.

The cat kindly kept my lap warm by curling up on it
