The Western Veil Nebula "Witch's Broom"

[oymd]

I struggled a bit to process this in PI.

Starnet leaves some artefacts over the BIG star just over the nebula, so played a bit with masks..

WO Star 71

294MC Pro + L-eNhance

L: 110x300s

D, DF & F: 50 each

PHD 2

NINA

WBPP

 

BTW, in Photometric Color Calibration, since I am calibrating a NEBULA, what option do I choose? The options available are AVERAGE SPIRAL GALAXY, or STARS? No option to choose a Nebula?

Hope you like it!

I welcome any feedback...

Nice image. I started imaging this just before the nights got too light, planning some more tomorrow night all being well. I'm using a GT81 and 294MC but no filter. You have more nebulosity than me but I'm hoping more lights will do that for me.... As far a PCC goes I just use the default average spiral galaxy.
