Still trying to get most nebulosity and color from this region.
Colors ok, nice stars from the lens' blades, but needs more work for nebulosity.

Capture: 21 lights x 30s x 3200 ISO, master dark

For comparison and reference, here is the same FoV taken just before without LP filter. It shows higher signal but also much higher light pollution.

Same settings as "good" image except 1600 ISO (rather than 3200) and 20 images (rather than 21)
