Johannes,
Excellent image, I have imaged this object earlier this year and didn't post
it yet, I didn't get it framed properly so the whole nebula is not in the
frame, I will post it tonight so you can see it, I didn't use any filters.
This fills your frame nicely great job. So you used the UHC filter, looks
like you got some great results. Could you post a raw image with this
filter?
I have a filter drawer that I have used only a few times with minimal
results. I have the Ha and OIII filters haven't tried them on the 10D yet.
Thanks,
Mark

Yesterday I was short of sleep and took a lot of images from NGC7000
in this warm midsummer night.
The first results with 5 min at ISO800 and mag 5 sky in white light
were disappointing, as almost no nebula showed up and the background
was grey.
So I tried the Lumicon 2" UHC filter with >95 transmission in H-beta,
O3 and H-alpha. 10 min shots at ISO1600 resulted in a blue nebula
with some red lines, but it was there!
See the details and result after a lot of processing, color shifting
and blurring with masks to reduce the noise:

Later this week I will include the filtered raws to my 10D review.
Hope to get some more efforts for comparison on this object from you
(Rick, Mike, Mark?)
