The Veil Nebula - NGC6992/95 in Cygnus
with 10" f/3.9 Astrograph
Uploaded 10/12/20

 
This
            section of the Veil is the most detailed and fit perfectly in
            my 1.5 degree wide field with the 10 inch. This 2h exposure brings
            out the faint nebulous ridge on the "back" of the arc,
            and to the lower right some faint thread like tendrils.
