Default ASTRO: Veil, part of the western side

This is another that I didn't think looked good enough and again I was
wrong. Though it is slightly out of focus as the temp dropped over 10C
during the lum frames and it dates back before I had data for
Robo-focuser's thermal compensation. Now that wouldn't be a problem.

It appears the OIII and the HII regions don't overlap in this guy. It
is either OIII or HII without much mixing. Either that or my color
processing is really bad.

It appears much darker west (right) of the nebula than inside the Bubble
(left side) Not sure if this is real or my processing.

Is that a tiny galaxy trying to get through the dust of the Milky Way
right of the biggest red area about the center of the nebula? If so it
must be really obscured.

I probably should have rotated the camera but I didn't so it crosses the
short axis of the frame.

LX200R@f/10, 4x10L, 3x10RGB all binned 2x2, STL-11000M, Paramount ME

Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh".

Rick, these coloured wisps are beautiful. I'm glad that you decided to
process the data.

Hope the correct image made your server, it is better than this one as
this one has a green cast to it and is upside down screwing up my
comments something awful. I knew something wasn't right as I wrote it
but my foggy brain couldn't figure it out until an hour later.
