This is more of a target for Northern Hemisphere imagers as it is quite low in the North here.
Last night, 4 x 15 minutes, RCOS 12.5 inch, STL11000CM camera, Tak NJP mount from my backyard observatory.

I might try to get some Ha for this tonight.

Greg,
Glad you got a chance at one of our Northern Mainstays! And what an image: great color, texture and you really got a lot of detail on the lobes.
