Description

The Eastern Veil Nebula, part of a much larger nebula complex known as the Cygnus Loop, a large supernova remnant in the constellation Cygnus that was created by the death of an exploded star. I captured it in bi-color HOO due to its strong signal in Ha and Oiii. It is an easy target and with some hours of integration time you can really get exceptional results. In my case almost 18h between the two filters were good enough.
