There is a method to this madness of orientating the camera.
It's the only configuration where torque is applied rather than a side load due to the weight of the STXL11002/filter wheel assembly which would result in the chip not being square to the optical axis.
Rotating the image 90 degrees results in strange star shapes.
Thanks for your comments.

Thank you Tim.
No HDR here. I developed the process to avoid blending R into the Ha channel which results in contrast reduction.
Basically the process is to use the Ha luminance as a mask on the HaRGB image and reduce the luminance component using curves.
Still a work in progress.
Halos are definitely a problem which can be reduced by processing.
I use Baader filters for the STXL-11002 and Astrodon with my ST-X10ME.
