Description

Work in progress. May also come back next year and use reducer in order to get more in the frame. 
First three nights with Ha + OIII dual narrow band.
First two nights (5 hrs) were nearly full, and full moon. One night had smoke from Oregon fires.
Third night was no moon during imaging, and image quality was better. Ha + OIII dual narrow band
Fourth night was with OIII filter to try and boost the Squid. It did help. 2 hrs & 32 minutes (6 and 8 min subs).  Also no moon while imaging.
Fifth night was clear, but windy. Not likely to improve detail. Ha + OIII dual narrow band.

Title: Most likely done for this year.

Description: Windy night, so not really able to image as long as I would have liked. Guiding was marginal, so not likely to have improved detail, but some additional color added.
