Description

This is my first attempt at the Veil Nebula in the constellation of Cygnus, taken from my own backyard in a Bortle 7/8 light pollution zone. Despite having 5.5 hours of integration time on this target it was still very difficult to extract much detail in the nebulosity.

Title: Veil Nebula NGC 6992

Description: Edited nebulosity on a starless layer, stretched histogram as much as possible and masked everything around the nebula itself to prevent unwanted noise affecting the top star layer. Added stars on the top layer with blending set to lighten, then adjusted levels and curves further. Applied Topaz Labs DeNoise AI.
