[APML] The Veil...

["Don Spencer" <ecdon@cox.net>]

Hi All,
          I just finished processing my first attempt at shooting the Veil.

You'll notice in this shot that the center seems a bit out of focus, the
edges focused real well, but somewhat rotated. This is the second shot from
that night that has this appearance, which leads me to believe that dew was
the culprit(it formed earlier and stayed longer the 2nd night I was out). By
comparison, my M8/M20 photo shows slight curving at the edges and dew was
just starting to pick up at the time the photo was shot. I also learned a
valuable lesson...it is better to take multiple shots of one area, stack
them, and get a quality photo, than it is to spend 2 nights shooting 1 shot
of anything in site! I am battling noise in both my Antares region and
IC4592 shots.
Thanks,
Don Spencer
