That gave me an idea. I have been doing this same galaxy but with just a UV/IR Cut filter and an ASI533MC Pro with a ZWO 107FF quadruplet. I was quite happy with that but you have challenged me to do the same with an Optalong L-Extreme filter. I managed just 90 minutes of 300 sec subs at Gain 100 last night and boy, as you say, those emission areas really do pop.

As usual, I had to quit because the battery I was using ran low on juice and ASIair needs the extra grunt.

I am puzzling how to get the best of both by combining the 2 sets of images. Not sure how to do that.

More experimenting coming up.
