NGC6992

[Beyond_Vision]

Not the most ideal night for DSO imaging with the Moon still having it's say and the transparency was awful, but just to stop me going stir crazy I had to get the kit out. Heres east part of the Veil Nebula NGC6992 10 x 5min subs @ISO1600 with the Canon 400D, Neodymium filter, Televue 0.8x FR/FF, TMB 105 APO. Stacked in DSS gradient removed in Pix -Insight LE and finished in PSCS3 with NC Tools.

It's a bit noisy due to using ISO1600 but time was of the essence as the conditions were worsening.

Nice one Kev I was interested in the same region lastnight but in widefield

I'm hoping for better transparency tonight as I have a couple of targets for the 3.5 hour treatment

As the others have said,lovely subtle colour and to my untrained eye it looks very natural,if you know what i mean.

That's very nice Kevin, the moon certainly makes it challenging, but that's a fine result!
