Rosette Nebula

[Skipper Billy]

Rosette Nebula taken last night (I was looking South not knowing the Aurora was screaming away behind me !). 3 hours Luminance binned 1x1 and 1.5 hours RGB binned 2x2.  Fully calibrated with Darks, Bias and Flats and processed in Pixinsight.

Constructive criticism very welcome.

beautiful detail and you have managed the lovely pinkish blue hue...

It's behind you!

Yeah very nice.  I prefer a wider field of view ideally but this is a nice result.

So do I but until my new camera arrives that's as wide as I can go !

I quite like this version, you feel like you're surrounded by the Rosette. lovely colour too

Some lovely detail.  Did you use Ha for the luminence?

[Skipper Billy]

Nope - all broadband filters - Baader LRBG 2" mounted.

That's great, with crisp resolution of the Bok globules and the fissures in the gas.

The only thing that would tempt me back for a further tweak would be the stars, which are maybe a bit big and also white in the cores. I don't know how you'd go about this in PI but in Ps I'd work just with the RGB stars (though maybe the binning would make this difficult. I don't know.)

Super image.
