Description

Veil Nebula - Cygnus Loop - SH2-103  

66 - Five minute exposures

This image taken from two sessions - Session one - 9/5/21 - 20 exposures. Session two - 9/7/21 - 46 exposures. 

Lights processed with 20 Darks and 15 Flats & DarkFlats. 

Just started Astrophotography beginning in  August - Been a visual viewer for a few years now.  I think I've got a pretty good handle on the hardware side,  but the post processing is - WOW - a steep learning curve. 

Image is straight out of Astro Pixel Processor, default settings. 

Comments welcome.
