My only observation is the filter maybe restricting or inhibiting your images to bring out natural colour in stars and details in spiral arms. There does seem to be a common colour cast with most images
Maybe try without the filter next time ( even if your under suburban skies ?? )
When I image galaxies I’ve tried with and without a filter and the images are so much better in regards to colour without a filter.
Well done !!
Hi Martin

Thanks for the kind words! Yes, in my area of Western Australia we are blessed with many clear nights but in summer with suffer from strong and hot easterlies that affect guiding and seeing. The best seeing is on clear winter nights but those are also the coldest(5C to 7C in my area) which cause heavy dew and severely affect my comfort levels haha!

You are so right, I've had problems with the L-Pro filter under my local conditions causing weird and inconsistent colour gradients. Could try with just an IR Cut filter?

Looking forward to imaging these with a mono cam soon!
