Hi all - this is my second image with the (still not fully tuned in) Esprit 80.

The wide-field of this scope allows the whole of this large object to be imaged and I was able able to include both the planetary nebula PK 294-00 1 and the nearby star cluster NGC 3766.
IC 2944 imaged here in HOO (Antlia ALPT filter) with RGB stars (Optolong L-Pro filter) from Bortle 7 skies. I would've liked more data on this but the weather has other ideas so it'll have to do for now.

Higher Res version available here: Astrobin IC2944

Comments & CC welcome as always.
