Hi Pat,
From Churchlands, I never take shots in CBD direction č eastlish. Most of my shots have been taken right up, looking slightly south-west.
In this instance I used 50mm, F1.4, slowed to 5.6.
This particular lens produces that “nice” shape of brighter stars with blades.
I have Astronomik CLS clip filter but I don’t use it.
In my opinion, and some users don’t share it, these filters irreversibly spoil the colour balance and also remove “something” from the data.
