Reworked Antannae and Ha GB Eta carina

Hi all
I finally managed to assemble an image of Eta Carina Nebula using a previous 3x200 sec ISO 1600 image with UHCS filter, but replacing the red channel with a 2 x 15 minute ISO 200 shot with 7Nm Baader Ha filter.

Also, I re processed my Antannae galaxy shot (2x5 mins ISO 400 no filter) I need to do more and longer images of this, but I did just manage to get the "tails" to appear.

My 10 inch F5.6 newtonian, EOS 350D (modded) and MPCC coma corrector was used in all images. Iris used for initial processing , the Photoshop CS.

Thanks
I think the faint ring is a processing artifact, I need to take more and longer images so as not to have to stretch the levels so much.

There are two long tails coming out of the end on each galaxy. They are real and good work captuing them!
The outer circle must be an artifact, or circular astroid belt
