Description

- bicolor narrowband image of the Western Veil Nebula, NGC6960

- taken from my city backyard, light pollution around Bortle class 7 (red zone)

- 29 x 300 sec of Ha data and 22 x 300 sec of OIII data

- OIII data suffers from nasty halos around brighter stars, particularly 52Cyg

- tried to reduce halos during processing, but some artefacts are still visible
