MASP Piggybacking

These are my first ever tracked astrophotographs.  Although my polar alignment was off (though I still guided) I was thrilled with the results.  I only took 2 pictures out of the entire roll for experimentation.  Next time I will get my alignment right on and take many more.

Deneb is the bright star toward upper left with the North American nebula to the West of it.  From the North American nebula go straight to the bottom of the photo.  Can you spot the Veil?
