Description

Still limited to a fork mount and no guiding my rules are:
Look for targets to the almost perfect west or east that stay between 45-65 degrees (Alt) for about 2h.
(Above 65 degrees my camera hits the mount)
Following these rules I can dare shooting 30-60sec exposures without visible field rotation. Usually I can use about 1/3 of the taken images.

On July 8th the Veil Nebula moved into my preferred shooting angle.
The narrowband data is mixed using the Forax method. This time I didn't want to go too crazy on the saturation though.
