Wow just beautiful, Scott. Very sharp and detailed.

Nice way to take advantage of the great seeing around here last night.

Well Scott, all I can say that is a great image, and as Mike has mentioned full of detail and great colour, very pleasing to the eye, keep them coming

excellent shot of ETA scott. I don't think it is your best shot though. I have seen much better ETA"s from you

Nice resolution Scott. I think I prefer a more salmon pink and purple/red nebulosity to your more orange red though but nice work on a perenial favourite none the less dude

Thanks everyone
I should do a full hour on it and see what I get
This is the furst time ive used a more "gentle" filter, the LPS is only meant to block light pollution bands and let everything else through. It leaves emission nebulae less "monochromatic" then the more severe UHCS filter does.

To the monochrome CCD users, I wonder how you'd go using a LPS type filter for your Luminance shots particularily if shooting from light polluted areas?
