Description

Another "drive by" quick imaging session of a target that is part of my massive mosaic, this one of the Veil Nebula. I managed a quick 1 hour per filter session last night before clouds moved in, tried desperately to not push the editing of the precious little data that's there. This is such a hard target, it really is a delicate veil and I think the vast majority of people push their editing too far. I'd love to push the total integration time up to 3-4 hours per filter to get a really good wide shot to go with my more tightly framed Eastern Veil image from earlier this year. Another target that's getting late in the year to shoot, really limited to maybe 3-4 hours in a night right now before it gets too low on the horizon.
