Pickering's triangle and the Western Veil nebula

A Seestar S50 was used in mosaic mode to image Pickering's triangle and the Western Veil nebula. The capture was limited to 84 minutes worth of 10s exposures due to clouds. The data were live stacked by the Seestar S50 to produce a complete mosaic. It would have been better is more data could have been captured; nevertheless sufficient data were captured to produce an image. The 16 bit Fits file produced as a result of the live stacking was debayered and SPCC corrected in PixInsight and further processed in Gimp 2.10, Starnet++, and GraXpert.
