NGC 6995 eastern veil

[Kuz]

The eastern veil is one of my favorite nebula . I didn't think I would be able to take a photo of it from where I live. My scope is nearly horizontal to the ground it is that low on the horizon , not to mention to the north I have one massive aluminum refinery 3 LNG gas plants and 2 ship coal loading facilities that have more lights than stars in the sky .

Anyway not the best shot really struggled with background colour

Thanks for looking

Having all that against you you’ve managed a great image of the veil.
I’d be happy with that.

Aye, I know how you feel. The damn refinery is directly to the east of me.
Good to know that there are others doing astro here.

Very nice. Good to see a target where these filter work really well for both Ha and O3

Light Pollution is always a downer but you've done an excellent job. Well done.
