Veil Nebula- Hydrogen Alpha-Celestron RASA

[pyrasanth]

I picked a new target tonight for the RASA. A portion of the Veil nebula. This is the first set of subs in HA. Atik 460 EX. Baader fast HA Filter 33 6 minute subs. Stacked in Ccdstack & given a slight tweak in Photoshop. The second image is slightly darker showing less nebulous detail. It was a bit windy so stars could have been tighter.

My future objective when I get the Atik 11000 will be to capture all of the veil in one or perhaps two frames.

Nice results

Good and deep, with the 'second broom handle' showing nicely.

You'll need 2 panels even with an 11000. This is what a 2 panel looks like with an 11 meg and a FL of 530mm (bearing in mind that numpty-brain cropped the tail for no good reason at all! I must fix that some time.      http://ollypenrice.smugmug.com/Other/Best-of-Les-Granges/i-tP4vF2J/0/X3/VEIL%20COMPLEX%20HaO111RGBWEB-X3.jpg
