You amuse me Mr. Whiskers, but I still like you...

FYI I spend a good amount of time looking at what others cannot see, and others mock.

I shot this image not long ago...

Veil Nebula is an old supernova remnant in the constellation Cygnus.

It is the remains of cataclysmic explosion of star that exploded between 5,000 and 8,000 years ago. This nebula is about 1,860 light-years distance from our tiny speck..

Guessing, this was a 30x30 @50 sec, stacked, calibrated, bla, bla...Exp. at ISO 800--SCT 10"--Using IP filters etc....

The image floored me when I processed the data....I was blownnnnn away....This was what was left of an epic explosion of a nearby star.
