NGC 6543

This target has been the most intense in terms of capture with almost 7h and somehow quite disappointing as still not enough signal to show the nebula nicely. The image is also very noisy and despite all my efforts I could not do better. There are also some weird artifacts, but I think this is coming from the scope (I might need to redo my flats). It was still worth doing as I am still learning a lot. I have ordered an LPS filter (IDAL LP D2) so I hope I can see a difference (my location is bortle 5). Maybe I will reshoot this target with this filter. Any comments or suggestions are welcome! Thanks
