Never could get this to look like anything at first. Finally revisited it and applied processing techniques I have learned in the interim. Will surely revisit it again in the coming days and try to reduce noise and enhance some details. I'm pleased with it given it was only 1 hr and no mod to the cam.

Thanks, Hop! I have decided to forego the mod to the Canon. My Mallincam Xtreme is particularly suited to Ha and Hb - just need to learn how to use the damn thing! It would make a world of difference if I didn't have to image from a parking lot with only a Celestron Powertank for my power supply - Xtreme and all the gizmos that need to go with it for imaging suck the thing dry in no time. I really need a few days with A/C supply and a place to chill (warm-up, whatever the case may be) and just get the knack of it. But I'll eventually get there! I'm encouraged about my Canon by this image.
