Description

Here now we have my not so extraordinary and normally edited variant of the Veil Nebula in contrast to the previous picture the "Great Wave".

Certainly one of the most famous remains of a huge supernova in the constellation Cygnus. The distance is estimated at around 2400 light years.
In very clear and dark skies, it is even possible to observe this area with a telescope.
Through photography, however, it is only possible to look at this breathtaking fog in its colors. I used narrowband filters in several nights to capture the emission data from the Ha and OIII.
For the star colors, I used the usual RGB filters.
The Veil Nebula is photographed very often, for me it was now the first time and hope you like my picture of the spectacular Veil Nebula.

... stay healthy and Clear Skies
