Description

EAST: Canon 30D Unmodified with Astronomik CLS filter 21x300sec at iso 1600 30 Darks/Flats/Bias Orion ED80 with WO 0.8 reducer/flattener WEST: Canon 30D Unmodified with Astronomik CLS filter 40x300sec at iso 1600 30 Darks/Flats/Bias Orion ED80 with WO 0.8 reducer/flattener NGC6992, NGC6979, and NGC6960 in their proper orientation by stacking the two veil images together. The corners are missing, but it does place all three main parts of the Veil in perspective. The hard part of putting these together was getting the colors as close as possible in the two images since they were taken on two different nights and processed seperately. June 11 and 12, 2007
