I'm not immediately sure what else could be the issue, sorry  . But good luck!

Hi Andy,
When I'm suffering serious withdrawal symptoms, I will occasional do photographs of DSO's when the moons up, but not in this case, it fairly typical of my subs. The Field is M85, M86 part of the Leo Triplet. When I moved out here 38 years ago the site was pretty dark, not now, civilization is catching up with me. A filter might be the go, I will get one and give it a try.
Cheers
Peter
