Very nice image. I would love to image this (one of my favourite nebula) but my location isn't really ideal sadly.

Lovely capture of a low UK target,

Personally I would love to see it just In HA,

but ether way cracking job.

well done

Nice framing.  Love this nebula, but I too find it not well positioned for imaging.  You have captured allot of the surrounding region, which I like.

Very good this stands up to H-a I have seen from many mono cameras and only 53 mins total. From my experience of cooled DSLRs I would say you should try OIII also as it will work well by the looks of it. This camera may be a jack of all trades OSC that can succeed at narrowband also.

Thank you Adam, I'm planning to buy OIII and Si filters in the future. Yes, that camera is very sensitive and that's why I like it very much. Didn't compared with ZWOASI1600 or the others as this is my first one.
Previously I was using Sony A7S JTW and I still have it for wider shots..
Let's see what we can achieve on next weather window..;) I will definitely extend the exposure time to 300 or more seconds.

Nice work - I actually prefer the mono Ha.
