Glad you enjoyed the view boys
Mario, actually none of the data was collected from here in Canberra, both the Starfire and AG12 data were collected from crappy Newcastle, the morning I grabbed the 30min of Ha with the Starfire it was uncharacteristically quite steady while the seeing was characteristically poor for the AG12 data...so perhaps I should have another go from the steadier skies of Wallaroo...and of course you are welcome to come down anytime .

To me it just doesn't seem appropriate to refer to the nebula as
"Eta and her keyhole"
however the wide field is quite stunning
