NGC 6960 Veil Nebula / Witches Broom

[Catanonia]

Quite a nice night last night with semi decent viewing and the high occasional cloud passing.

So focused and frame the SkyWatcher ED80 Pro II on the Witches Broom and snapped off 2 hours worth of data with the modded 350D

A little processing later and the following is the result.

Managed to get some of the blue out of the veil. But this one was a difficult target and the viewing conditions were not perfect.

Nice image. What software are you using for the star spikes, only one seems to be emphasised. Paul

Noels actions and picked out that star only as it seemed appropiate.
