Great images Salvo, you put me to shame. The first time ever I have just put the camera on in Halpha and I didn't look visually first, I missed that huge prom on the right at 2 O clock!!! oh dear oh dear! I was short cutting because of time and clouds. That will teach me not to do a visual first next time :(

Well done :bow :hamster:
