Hi Guys,

. i get lazy at times taking off the uhc-s filter from shooting nebulas then moving over to galaxies

cheers

Great work Eric. Distinct dark dust lanes are present.

Great stuff.
Actually I found with my 10 inch I get better results without the UHCS filter on NGC253 as the filter blocks a lot of the starlight too, only with real fast lenses does the filter go well for galaxies I find.
I can see no coma at all in your pic too, sharp to the edge
