Description

Taken between clouds on two nights. This region of Vela presents many opportunities. 

The shock waves and contrast between Ha and OII makes for some drammatic imaging. I'm amazed at the amount of fine filgree detail ...have to remind myself that it might look fine but is kinda large ;-)

Stacked and combined with basic process in APP and then straight into PS CC for some further stretching and star reductions etc.

This area deserves a big mosaic, but need a longer period of clear skies and also need to better resolve mount tracking and tilt/spacing before I invest the 50+ hours it needs.
