Description

I decided to make an effort to image the Eastern Veil this year and try to bring out the fainter outer shell in Ha. I was inspired by @Jakob Sahner and his image a few years ago https://www.astrobin.com/0opn4n/D/

While I have nowhere near the integration time that his image has, I am happy with how much nebulosity I was able to show. I'll be uploading the master Ha and Oiii data. I do wish I had captured some RGB data for the stars but this hobby is always a balance of creating an image with what data you have vs what you wish you had.
