Image Description
My first attempt at the Eastern Veil Nebula. This image was taken with a Radian Raptor 61mm refractor telescope and a ZWO ASI183 MC Pro. Total time so far is 81 minutes from 54 90 sec subs. I used an Optolong L-Extreme narrowband filter for these images. Processed with DSS and Photoshop.
