testing my modded 1000D

I recently modded a 1000D by replacing the stock filter with an Astrodon Inside UV/IR filter, and have been running some test shots to check everything is in order.

Intermittent cloud, so I wasn't going to go to the trouble of setting up with the main imaging scope. These were some quick test frames from this morning with a 28mm prime lens at f5.6. 30 x 2min unguided subs ISO1600. Darks, flats and bias frames applied. Processed with Pixinsight.
