Description

I had just a few hours of clear sky to try out the new Baader Ultra F2 CMOS filters before 2 solid weeks of cloudy forecasts. I decided to go for Ha on the california nebula.

The new filters are amazing! No more reflections, tons of signal. I was able to expose for 600s without bloating the stars in the image.
I am so much looking forward to shooting the other channels and making a color image, but I could not just hold on to this monochrome one.
