My location also has bad light pollution. In recent years I have been complaining out its rapid increase - could lately only eyeball three stars in the Southern Cross. Recently had both my eyes lenses replaced owing to cataract problems. The lens are set for long focus. Wow - I can now easily see mag 5 stars and less and of course all the Cross stars. The stars are now in pinpoint focus instead of slightly blurry. Enthusiasm for astro imaging restored! Peter
