Thanks Richard
Lack of spikes is not entirely caused by the filter, although it would have some affect
Also my scope is at f6 so not entirely fast to resolve those little stars
Helix is located in no man’s land , not too many larger stars around so my 6” newt at 900mm fl can’t resolve those tiny stars to show the spikes ( their probably buried in the background pixels some where. On the original frame version you can see a larger star at the top with spikes ( probably the only one )

Cheers
Martin
