Description

We love the small 360mm refractor! It allowed us to get the entire Cygnus Loop in only two panels with surprising detail. It's a shot we've wanted to do since we started this avocation and we were finally able to do it. This image kicks off a short four-image study of the Veil with long-focal-length C11 shots of the Bat, the Witch's Broom, and Pickering's Triangle coming next.
