The Rosette Nebula (also known as Caldwell 49).
Place: Ibergeregg (Switzerland)
Total exposure time: 4h00m
Frames (Subs): 48x5min
ISO: 400
Darks: 5
Flats: 23
Bias: 43
Seeing: Great. But over 40% bad subframes because my Mount sucks :-(. GSO 200/1000 Newton Telescope on Neq6 Pro Synscan. Guiding with MGen II at APM 60/228mm Guidingscope. Canon 600d astromodified. Processed with Pixinsight and Lightroom CC #astronomy #astrophotos #RosetteNebula #astronomie

#SkyWatch #Astrophotography #RosetteNebula again. Astrophotography requires an interesting mix of skills. I spent some time yesterday working on my processing skills and learned some new techniques. Before and after comparison. #StillLearning

#SkyWatch #Astrophotography The #RosetteNebula again. Astrophotography requires an interesting mix of skills. I spent some time yesterday working on my processing skills and learned some new techniques. For this image, I stacked 45 three minute exposures with calibration frames. I then separated the resulting image into it's 3 separate color channels--red, green, and blue--and processed each color separately. The result is cleaner and sharper details . #StillLearning

Day 1454 #DailyPhoto #SkyWatch #Astrophotography The #RosetteNebula is 5000 light years away in the Monoceros region of the Milky Way. #NGC2244 is the young star cluster at its center that is ionizing the surrounding gas cloud. I was able to capture 45 three minute exposures before the clouds rolled in. I also integrated 20 bias, 20 dark, and 20 flat frames. #StillLearning

This is the Rosette Nebula, showing the light emitted from Ha (Hydrogen) and Sii (Sulphur) gases in the nebula.
I should probably get some more exposure time on this, but I’m running out of time! I probably won’t get much of a chance to image this one again until late next year.

Bats flying into a cave. Inspired by a combination of the Rosette and Lagoon nebulae. 🌌🦇
