Description

I had a few hours of clear sky and decided to test my new purchase the Optolong UV/IR Cut filter, so M45 fit the bill.  I think this image turned out Ok, if I had more time / more exposures I think I would have been able to bring out more of the dust etc..

I like the UV/IR cut filter and I  think it makes a little difference with the ASI2600mc, but I am giving it away to my son with my WO Zenith Star 61 and ASI533MC, which would be a better fit with that camera.
