Western Veil ATIK first light

Third target for the first night using the Atik 460EX - the Western Veil seemed a suitable target since I just can't make heads or tails from my OSC data. The most difficult target so far - until now. Data coming in fast from the mono! The trick now is to learn how to process mono properly.
