And here is the Cat's paw in Halpha, just next to scorpio, by a clear full moon night ...

Jean-Yves, very nice! What kind of Ha filter are you using, and have you tried longer subs? There's probably some extra faint stuff to capture with longer exposure, but it's nice as is.

Thanks everyone !
I tried longer exposures using the ST8 autoguider but the guide star was a bit too dim and with the Astronomik Halpha filter in place, the guider lost the star and went crazy !
I will try to find a good target with a bright star well located for guiding and do some 10 minutes exposures ... hopefully tonight or next week : these last few days it rains by day and it is clear at night ...
Cheers

Very Nice, Jean-Yves! I don't see this one imaged much, and yet it so interesting!

That's fantastic, J-Yves -
It looks like your sky-90 and Ha is a great combo!
