[Carole]

I wanted to get double this data, but have run out of clear skies.

Taken over 2 nights March 2020 from Home
Samyang 135mm F2 lens stopped down to F2.8
Atik460EX and Baader filters
HEQ5
Ha 2 x 600secs + 6 x 900secs
Oiii 6 x 300secs binned + 3 x 600 unbinned
RGB 3 x 150 (each)
Total imaging time 2hours 55mins (almost 3 hours)

Blimey - you must be spending all your waking hours either imaging or processing !

Another nice image Carole, it looks great at this scale.

Lol, it has been a Marathon with all the clear skies we have been having, was glad of the night off last night when the clouds came over.

Slightly enhanced image posted.

One more image to process, but again wanted double the data.

wanted double the data. 

Don't we all

Well done Carole, that's come out really well.  It's good to see the whole Veil complex in a single field of view.  It's a perfect target for narrowband.

As you say, twice the data would be better but you have to stop somewhere

Great framing Carole and the processing is very nice!    I plan to do this one as a mosaic later in the summer.  I have taken the east and west sections separately but never the entire field.
