Very nice, but I'm sure you can stretch more detail out of it!.

I'm not entirely sure that these filters help with clusters as they selectively cut bands of colour. What do others think? Removes nice star colour?

Edit - oops. I thought the lpro is one of the narrow band type filters. Looks more like a light pollution filter?

I never user filters and image under Sydney’s Bortle 8 filthy light polluted skies
I tried a CLS light pollution In my Canon 600D when I first started imaging and could never get the colour balance right in the final image
Narrowband imaging is a different kettle of fish though
