Description

This is 2 panels of a planned 6 panel mosaic of the Veil Nebula. I am still acquiring data, but the weather hasnt been nice the last couple weeks. This is one of my favorite regions of the night sky. The filaments in both the Ha and Oiii are spectacular to me. I took this with my 8" F4 Newtonian, QHY268m, and Antlia 3nm Ha/Oiii filters.
