Description

Poor seeing conditions and just a few hours between clouds but had to get my imaging fix. Would've liked more time but you take what you can get.

Some odd green discoloration I could not get rid of. Also some artifacts that suggest imperfect flattening. Not sure what I did wrong.

I think I should try to combine an LP filter with these broadband filters. Would probably help with my Bortle 5 skies.
