Actually, I intended to take another shot of the TeaPot, but then I saw quite interesting data during processing the Ha series of images.

The red halo appeared after combining the RGB image with the Ha image in PixInsight using the N[arrow]B[and]-RGB script.
All data taken with 60Da + Ha-clip-filter with 50mm/F1.4 lens (2.8) and Polarie.

Thanks for looking

Nice shot, Ian

That red halo is a broad area of HII emission which lies in that general direction, in which the many nebs are embedded.

Thanks Carl.

I just wasn't sure whether I could pick up enough of the HII emission with the EOS Ha clip-in filter in 20mins.

Thanks Jo.


Thanks Greg.


Thanks Ross.
