Veil Nebula (West)

Hi All. I thought I would share with you my efforts from last night. It hasn't come out as well as I had hoped. If it's clear again tonight I'll have another go but I think this time I may try it without the Field Flattener, it seems to be causing some vignetting which I wasn't expecting it to.

No light pollution filter was used.

It is my first ever attempt at this so not surprising I may need to take more and slightly longer subs.
