Hi all
Had a go at some longer Lumicon Deep Sky filtered shots of Eta Carina, so took a 500, then a 750 sec shot both ISO 1600, heres the result

Amazingly, it was fairly low and in horribly light polluted skies, could hardly see it in the finder! This filter, combined with long exposures works miracles.
