Description

This is my first try at the western veil nebula. This was taken over 2 nights this week in texas where it was well over 100 degrees during the day and my camera could only cool down to -5 initially. I must say that when the first image appeared on my screen my jaw dropped. I love that feeling you get when you see a deep sky image for the first time on your computer screen that exceeds all expectations.
