West Veil Nebula with Halo due to humidty/smoke

On 08/03/2024 11:00 pm by Andy Dungan| Near Cotopaxi, CO USA

I decided to go ahead and shot West Veil with my new Askar V even though there was a lot of humidity and smoke. I decided to go ahead and send this one in because of the unique halo that was created around the central star. Still a nice pic of the West Veil Nebula that is a spectacular item to be found in the Cygnus Constellation.
