Hi All, Hope you are all keeping well. Here is an image from the 26&27th of September NGC 6960 the Veil Nebula west in H Alpha. It was quite misty witch just seemed to enhance the light pollution the sky was an orange glow. I managed to get 40x5min exposures Darks was 16x5Mins Transparency was about about 5 medium haze seeing was not bad about 6 out of 10.Total exposure was 200 Min So 3 Hrs 20 Mins. Hope you like. http://webtreatz.com/component/option,com_zoom/Itemid,27/page,view/catid,10/PageNo,9/key,76/hit,1/Carl. |

Outstanding Carl - Wow in a nutshell. Incredible structure. I love the contrast between nebulosity and bright foreground star. Nicely done!. The Veil is one of my favourite objects to observe visually.

That has to be the most incredibly detailed image I have ever seen of NGC6960. Very well done Carl.
