Need a few more Ha subs on the lower half but its a start. Just a quick stretch and stich in PS just to see if it would work.

Now that's a nice close up image..

What camera and scope? I take it it was your QHY8 and Ha filter?

I've progressed from the QHY8 and now have the 9 - mono + H-alpha 7nm

The scope is the Skywatcher Evostar 100ED DS-Pro with reducer

I'm going to start the lower half again and shift it to the right, to make a full frame image. I did it that way because I was unsure what was down the left hand side of the "trunk":)

ooooooo at last I can see why it is called the elephants trunk.

Nice image

Glad you are getting to grips with the QHY9

I have a very simliar setup and might give this a go.
