Here is one of my favourite Southern objects - The Vela Supernova Remnant.

This one was taken from my new home which has fairly dark skies and my
AP140 with its fabulous 155TCC (reducer /corrector) that gives F5.7
over a very large field.

FLI Proline 16803 and Baader filters.

HaLRGB 30 30 30 30 30.

Excellent! There sure is a lot to look at in that image.

Fantastic image Greg. The 140 is one superb scope, and seems to be a great combo with the camera.
