Description

Widefield (10 degree) image of the Veil nebula in Cygnus. The image data was collected from a 3 hour session with a Kitt Peak telescope based in Colarado. I've imaged this supernova remenant several times before but this is the first time I have managed to get the whole complex in a single frame.
