Description

When I was a kid, I always looked at photographs of the universe and said to myself: "One day, I want to as well photos of the universe".

Several years later, here it is. My first High Quality astro photo. The Veil Nebula, remnant of a supernova that happened 8000 years ago about 1500 lightyears away from our home. I captured the nebula 18hrs and edited the photo around 5hrs to reach this final image. I am so happy...
