We are monitoring nearby long period variable stars (LPVs) in the near infrared K band to establish their precise Period-Luminosity relation. However, they are very bright in the near-infrared and it is difficult to observe them because they are easily saturated on the modern near-infrared camera. We developed a special ND filter, named Local Attenuation Filter (LAF), to observe very bright stars. Using LAF, we can observe not only the very bright targets without saturation but also reference stars in the same image. We can perform the accurate relative photometry for the bright stars. We present this new method to observe bright stars as well as the status of our monitoring of nearby LPVs.
