My first attempt at hunting the Lion nebula during the clear spell at the tail end of August. This NB image comprises 37x300s (3h05m) captured using my Borg 101ED refractor / ASI071MC Pro combo, with IDAS NBZ filter. 

Processed using PI in a similar way to my previous Cygnus Wall image, bringing out some stronger colours than are often seen. Quite surprised at the level of signal in both Ha and OIII.
