Rosette and NGC 2244 - ASI071MC Pro

[rodrigol]

Hi,

The Rosette nebula and NGC 2244 using an Esprit 120 with a ASI071MCPro, a quad filter and a Orion 0.8 FR. I managed to get 8x300s lights of which only 4 did not have clouds. I did manual stacking in PI and some basic processing to get to the image below, which is not perfect, but it is much better than I anticipated with 4 frames. With so little data it is really mad to do what I did but the seeing was good and the individual frames look promising. I'm very pleased with this camera. The Orion 0.8 FR is great but not perfect. I'm waiting for the dedicated FR for the Esprit.

After uploading the image I just noticed that my dynamic crop did not get everything I wanted. I cannot see these borders in my computer. I guess these are exposed during further image compression after the upload?

Thanks for watching!

I love the colors and the glowing "gassy" look of the nebulosity.
