Second image is definitely there, try using a dual band filter if you have one to bring out the Ha

Yep, I will try with Optolong L-Pro on first occasion, it may help a bit.
In the meantime, I found possibly good enough filter on Aliexpress.

Agree with Nik getting a dual band filter will help reveal more structure. But just as it is that’s kinda a cool. The ‘hand’ is so dark when you spot it it looks like some dark devilish entity coming for the galaxy. Ironic given the popular name for this object lol
