My wide-field image of the Veil Nebulae and star cluster NGC 6940 in Vulpecula was taken with my Rokinon 135mm prime lens at f/2.8. The lens was mounted on my Canon 1300D DSLR camera and attached to my Star Adventurer 2i Pro tracking mount. Settings were 50s at 800 ISO with 130 images, 50 flat frames, and 25 dark frames, all stacked in DSS and edited in Siril and GIMP 2.10. I used an intervalometer to control the camera and a Bahtinov mask to focus on a bright star. The image was taken at Fall Bay, Gower, under Bortle 3 skies.
