Sky glow

This is a single 5 min RAW file using the Comet Catcher, StarShoot camera and NO Skyglow filter. No modification to the shot was done. No dark subtract or any other type of processing.

Shows how bad the glow is when not using a light pollution filter....

Thought it was kind of neat to see the difference.
The next shot show the same with the filter.
