Cygnus is one of my favorite constellations for astrophotography.

It contains many deep sky objects but one of the most spectacular is the Veil Nebula, a large but faint supernova remnant.

This is my attempt to capture the western part of it, which is known as The Witch's Broom.
I have used Ha light to reveal the nebula details and I hope next time to try with OIII also.

Looking really good so far, this is definitely going on my list when my imaging scope arrived :-)
