Some interesting filaments in the first shot, I have never seen them radially arranged before, I see the pattern is gone a day later so it must have been an unstable arrangement :)

Tareq, you can use the Baader photographic wedge for visual, this is the whole point, it comes with a range of filters so that you can use any combination of ND you like for photographic use. If you want to do visual, just put the ND5 in :)
