Beautiful shot Greg!

Question:
Do you see any downside to using a narrowband filter for imaging? I always thought that these filters were NOT meant for imaging, but I guess I'm proven wrong...
My area is VERY light polluted, and using a Narrowband filter might help bring out detail while keeping LP at bay...


Thanks for sharing! 8)
