    This filter is amazing. It has completely changed the way I work. Thanks OPT. There's only one thing missing though. I'm often find myself jealous of not being able to shoot the Andromeda galaxy or Veil Nebula from my location in the southern hemishphere. I'm sure many nothern hemisphere astrophotograhers are envious of some of our southern targets. So why not a filter that allows you to shoot through the graound?
