I don't particularly pay a lot of attention to whether my targets are
primarily HA or OIII. But between dark and early morning there are
literally dozens of targets in Cass and Cepheus I've been shooting.
Ced-214, NGCs 7380, 281, IC 1848, IC 405 and 410. NGC 1499 gets high
enough before midnight. These just scratch the surface as there are so
many. The N. America nebula is overhead at dark as are all the other
Cygnus objects. The Northern MW runs through these constellations and
provides plenty of targets.

Let us know what you find out.

Alan
