My version of the Veil Nebula

[Richie092]

This is my first ever Nebula shot on my new to me set up of NEQ6, W/O Star 71 and Atik 383l.

I have a very light polluted back garden so am pretty much limited to NB at the moment. This is made up of 18 x 900 Ha, 12 x 900 OIII and 9 x 900 SII captured over 4 nights in July. Relevant darks and flats @ -15c- couldn't get bias to work in DSS for some reason.

Also my first attempt at processing and I have chosen Pixinsight. That was fun....

Would really appreciate any critique especially on the processing. I think I may have gone a bit bonkers with the saturation.

Thanks for looking.

A good first attempt.

Yes a bit too saturated with colour. Stars look pretty good, quite often the Veil gets "hidden" by the number of stars but this looks good to me.

Thank you for the feedback. I was getting a bit carried away towards the end I might have another go and ease off a bit.

Loving my narrow band filters, I was surprised how much they held back the stars (if that is the right term)

Funny enough, I'm liking the over saturation. Any chance of upping the green a hint to give the blue a little more teal colour ?

That's as well as a less saturated version.😉

Agree oversaturated.

Thank you. Your comments are appreciated. I will have another go and calm it down a bit. 😬
