three nights, several short imaging windows, and finally the complete veil nebula complex in a single frame.

what fascinates me most are the incredibly delicate filaments of ionized gas, the remnants of a supernova explosion thousands of years ago. even the faint structures connecting the brighter eastern and western sections are visible.

equipment:
telescope: askar sqa55
camera: zwo asi1600mm-cool
mount: neq6 pro
filters: astrodon h-alpha 3nm and oili 3nm guiding and acquisition: zwo asiair processing: siril

image details:
sky: bortle 5
palette: hoo (hydrogen-alpha / oxygen-iii)

the biggest challenge was collecting enough data during the limited clear-sky windows. i'm particularly happy with the faint filaments extending throughout the entire nebula complex.

comments and constructive criticism are always welcome.
