This GC would probably do well with an IR filter, like one of Astrodon's, considering it's embedded in the bulge with all that dust and such between us and it.
Thank you Carl Yes it is heavily obscured but does shine a bit brighter in the IR. I imaged this without any filters so any IR light that my chip can pick up would have been included in the data. It would certainly be interesting to see an IR-only view.

Thank you Dennis Yes I'm very happy with the performance of my new scope. It does seem crisper now than before, something that is very handy when hunting down these things.
