Description

This is the entire Veil Nebula complex and is my first light image with my new TAK FSQ85 on an Avalon M-Due mount and driven by a PL4s on-board computer running SGP.  It is also my first attempt at processing a project with PixInSight.   There are plenty of imperfections and at some point after I gain some additional experience I will re-process it as the data is really clean.  Overall I am pretty satisfied with with the result given I am a total beginner.

Title: Veil Nebula Wide Field - Reprocessed

Description: This is a reprocess of my original data. I think this attempt reveals more nebulousity and I was able to remove some of the red artifacts in the original data. Unfortunately the .73 reducer on the TAK85 does not produce a flat field, and that is the cause of the elongated and diffracted stars. Next year I will re-image with my FSQ106.
