A bit of the Rosette Nebula

[NenoVento]

Hi all,

Looking for large targets, I went for the Rosette Nebula:

As you can see, I've only got a bit of the nebula. I wish I had a bigger sensor, but with this I am satisfied :-). 

 

The gear:

• Sky-Watcher Evoguide 50-ED
• Celestron CPC 800 XLT (used as goto mount) 
• Optolong UHC
• Risingcam GPCMOS01200KPC (IMX224 color)

The software:

• CPWI
• SharpCap

Thanks for looking,

NV

Great picture, thanks for posting. Always good to see what people achieve and how 👌

Grab some more overlapping  frames and stitch them together… the whole area up from here has lots of nebulosity out past the Cone nebula!

Hi @PeterW, good idea. I've done this kind of things with The Moon, funny I didn't think of trying the same trick on DSOs. But, then again, this won't be EEVA anymore, right?.

Regards,

NV

EEA is what you make of it…. Watching frames build up over a few minutes each and then assembling them with minimal extra work…. Doesn’t sound like imaging .. and you get to see a  “bigger picture”. Too many people only look at “the usual suspects”, there’s plenty more stuff off the beaten path. Similarly the whole of cygnus and Cepheus have lots of nebulous stuff for you to follow and dig up…. Whatever takes your fancy.
