Description

This image shows the Cygnus Loop / Veil Nebula.

It was my first time autoguiding and due to the ASIAIR, it was a breeze to set up (only focusing the guide scope took some time).
I still have issues taking subs longer than 2 minutes, which might be because my Manfrotto Tripod isn't sturdy enough for the weight of my setup.

Overall I think it looks nice for a first try but I'm not too happy with the result.
It's probably the lack of a Duo-Narrowband Filter which makes the image looks a bit bland compared to others.
It could also use some more integration time.

Feedback is appreciated!
