Yesterday I had a C8 with a Thousand Oaks solar filer out. Don't let this event get by. Seeing limited magnification to about 100. Between swapping eyepieces I spotted my Baader moon and skyglow filter in my eyepiece case and thought-why not? It worked to great effect. It did change the color to mild purpulish but also greatly increased visibilty of detail.
