    Nice article, Agena-people!

    As a 'Filter-Nut,' allow me to augment this with an article by the well-known 'Filter-Nut' David Knisely from out of the Prairie Astronomy Club. He's written many very nice articles - another of which is already floating around the forums - so here's a Pdf. folks can grab and enjoy at their leisure:

    Useful Filters For Viewing Deep-Sky Objects - David Knisely WEB-LAYOUT.pdf

    I hope you enjoy it!

    Back to the Agena take -

    Dave

    This is really helpful. I never bought many filters over the years; I want to up the ante. Great articles.
    Thanks, Dave!
    Thanks, Agena!
