Nice work Raymond.

I agree with Jeff, looks like a difficult target, very faint, whispy details..

Nice one although all the stars are white.

Is this part of the Veil nebula?

Dear Greg,

Yes, Network Nebula is part of the supernova commonly called Veil Nebula. Veil Nebula is usually further divided as the Circus Nebula/Western Veil NGC 6960, to distinguish from the Network Nebula NGC 6992 (also called Eastern Veil).

Also the stars are a bit too white. Would try to improve it later when my processing skills are to be advanced.

Nice work on a beautiful wisp of exploded star. Always a beauty this piece of the supernova remnant IMO :thumbsup:

Looks just a tad dark to me but still very pleasing.
