Description

This is a stack of 98 x 30 second exposures using the Baader Neodymium (Moon & Skyglow) Filter during 98% Moon on 8 October 2022 from Iluka, Western Australia. The SW ED150 APO was paired with the ASI 294 MC- Pro. This is the first time I have used this filter; during capture it was obvious that moon light contamination was reduced but I do think the filter promoted an enhanced blue/green cast which I found difficult to correct. On balance I think the filter is useful for photography during a full moon which increases capture opportunities.
