Thank you 😊

Also, each panel was at least an hour and I only get 2 hours max before the target is obstructed by the balcony.

Both tbh. I was getting strange artefacts caused by cooling the camera too quickly. Created a cloud effect in the middle of the frame. If it’s warm outside, best cool in two stages :- 0C first, then after 10mins take it down to -10C

I actually changed my mind in this one. It’s overblown Ha is depriving the poor Pelican of much needed OIII.

The version on Astrobin now is the best one.

I tend to use light Olive Oil as standard and Sunflower or Peanut if I need a 'neutral' taste oil. I don't take much notice to smoke points and just try to use something relatively healthy.

The oils I use I use most often in desc order:-
Olive (Light and XtraVirgin)
Sunflower
Peanut
Mustard
Toasted Sesame

Nicely done! Good contrast, detail and sympathetically processed too. Have been thinking about doing a bit of lunar myself recently, it’s been years since I last had a go, and certainly not with a proper setup in terms of the mount and camera.

A few years back I lived in a village in Suffolk with no street-lights, could see it with naked eye there too 👍

I wouldn’t cancel your vacation just yet.

..on the wide-field Redcat version, that is! :-)

Thanks Michael, fingers-crossed for a clear night to get the Narrowband now!

Part 2 can be done on another clear night, next time using the Narrowband filter to just grab the nebulosity. Really wanted to get the Broadband done while it’s s relatively New(ish) Moon, to make good use of the pretty decent (Bortle 4) skies here.
