This is one of the best drawings I've seen of the Veil nebula . While you look for NGC-6992, look for NGC-6995 as well, it looks something like a witch's broom in shape and lies in between the two brighter sections. The larger the telescope, the more complex this nebula becomes. It's a real challenge to sketch through a large telescope because you see filaments everywhere. Well done!
