This is how I’m currently taking my photos from my white zone light polluted backyard. We’ll take an example of my recent Horsehead Nebula image and look at how you can get some very pretty images with a sensitive color camera, a filter, and the magic and math of stacking.
You can find my images on astrobin: https://www.astrobin.com/users/jcwillis4/
The STC Duo Narrowband Filter I describe can be found at: https://www.cyclopsoptics.com/astronomy-filters/stc-astro-duo-narrowband-filter-48mm/
The camera I use is the ZWO ASI294MC Pro, which can be purchased from most astronomy dealers or direct from ZWO:
