A feather in the sky

Dear all, I've eventually been able to process another image from data I took long ago, still during the somehow troubled startup period of my new OTA.

It is the part of Vela SNR including the feather shaped Pencil nebula and some other cirrus nebulae in the area.

Here is the main page:

and here is the fully zoomify/full screen version:

This is a single frame with a total exposure of more than 13 hours. Unfortunately wasn't able to recover several more sub frames taken, in particular on the OIII, so the overall result is noisier than I planned. I will perhaps add more light as the Vela is back visible in the spring sky.

I hope you will like it.

Clear Skies
Marco
