2.5 hours of data on the Western Veil last night from my bortle 7 home location with my Celestron Origin using the nebula filter.
This was post-processed using the following programs: Graxpert, Siril, and Affinity Photo (also with StarXterminator and Topaz anti-noise). Figuring out the best set of post-processing steps is still on-going for me but I did bring out quite a bit of detail especially with just 2.5 hours from a bortle 7 location. This will be better from a darker site and going longer.
You can see the effect of the large central obstruction on the brightest star. that seems to be a common things in RASA captures.
