Description

First attempt at the western veil nebula, under light polluted skies. Trying out my clip in CLS filter, it works, as I have never been able to get this clear of a shot without it. 40 minutes total time because I needed to get to bed. Ill give it a try again when I have more time to capture more exposures. Even with the new filter I had to stretch the curves so much to bring it out that the stars all turned funky colors so I had to mask the nebula and B&W the background. Hopefully Ill be able to get it from a dark sky sight soon.
