The Veil Nebula
The Veil Nebula (part of it).
I used an unmodified Canon 5D, and I'm pretty unimpressed with the length of integration necessary to get this much of an image. Maybe it's time to look into a modified dSLR to capture more of the Hydrogen-alpha light. Although, I'm pretty happy with the amount of detail (check out the large view).
32 x 4 minute @ ISO1600
stacked in Deep Sky Stacker
Canon 5D through an Orion ED80
Autoguided with a Meade DSI Pro through an Orion ST80 using PHDGuiding
