24th June 2011, I took a photograph of a part of Veil Nebula with my telescope WO Megrez 110. Despite I got details in the nebula, I wasn’t very satisfied : except some technical problems, the photographic field was too tight for me.

The month of June has been a return in terms of astronomical photography, the first picture being a regain control of my telescope WO Megrez 110 on Sadr and IC1318.

Here are the other photographs I took during this little improvised walk (well, in fact, I decided the evening before).
