Veil and North American Nebula from last night

[jonathancd]

Hello,

First time imaging last night in nearly two months!! Good to be out again and I thought I would have a go at a couple of summer targets.

These are my first goes at the Veil and North American (wow that's big). Both are about 30 unguided exposures of 90 seconds using a modded 300d and equinox 80 plus a 6.3 focal reducer. Pretty pleased with how they have come out but not sure I have got the focus right though it could be caused by the focal reducer.

hope you like them

Well done Jonathan, they are looking good and the unguided tracking has gone well. The focal reducer with your large chip will mean that stars at the edge of the field will always tend to be a little distorted.
