Riding the Wave

by admin · September 22, 2020
52 Cygni seemingly rides the wave of the Veil Nebula in this image (well a small part of the Veil nebula - NGC6960). The subject probably suits a longer focal length than my telescope, but I wanted a picture of the star to finish a pet project of mine.
The images was taken with a modified Canon EOS6D camera through a Skywatcher Esprit 120ED refractor telescope. Total integration time of 125 minutes.
