The Eastern Veil Nebula (NGC 6992), in the constellation Cygnus


Shot with Redcat 51, asi183mc pro and l-extreme filter
Using 180 second sub frames, 16 total for 48 minutes total integration time

This is one of those nice colorful nebula that is fairly easy to locate and capture.   Can get really nice results even with under an hour of total integration time.  


Here is a a more widefield view of the whole Veil region taken with a modified canon 750d DSLR with an askar fma180 scope and l-extreme filter.  This is directly out of the asiair using livestack after just around 30 minutes of one minute captures.
