NGC2070 was taken with an unmodded 600D and no LP filter. No idea what the integration time was. This was before I had the modded 40D hence the green I guess. Don't think there was dew about. This was taken on December 15th 2016 in Brisbane. It's more that the noise was pretty extreme (sensor temps generally go well above 30degrees) and the isolation button in the Life module in StarTools requires a pretty good mask to avoid keeping the noise around the objects you wish to isolate. Trying various masking techniques (selecting similar brightness or similar colour) which work to some extent. Much of the fuzziness is kind of what I was after (and I think it's mostly there anyway) to get this sense of pockets of stellar activity, like little town centers :-)
