I am in a light-polluted area. As a result, I don’t try for OSC or LRGB images. If I want to achieve reasonably sharp images I have to use NB filters. The price is that I have to spread image acquisition over multiple nights. That’s just the way it is. It also means I can’t hope to get decent galaxy images. So it’s nebulae only or planetary. And each has it’s own season. Winter and Spring. The rest of the year is just a waste of time.
