This is my first M27 image with this filter and it reveals far more Oxygen (blue green) than the previous image with no filter. The faint halo is actually visible which I've never seen before.

 

The Dumbbell Nebula (also known as the Apple Core Nebula, Messier 27, and NGC 6853) is a planetary nebula (nebulosity surrounding a white dwarf) in the constellation Vulpecula, at a distance of about 1360 light-years. It was the first such nebula to be discovered, by Charles Messier in 1764.
