Default New toy - H-alpha!

Just to complicate things at my observatory, I recently bought a modified Canon 350D to upgrade from my non-modified 10D. To make my learning curve even steeper, I just got an H-alpha filter.

First light with the new filter seen here-

Yeah, nice camera. I went from a non-modified 10D to the modified 350D. I had almost no red, now I have too much! I have to play with the white balance settings to keep from sucking in too much light pollution now.
