Description

First attempt on the Rosette Nebula, 226x90" stacked in DSS with 40 dark, 40 bias, and 20 flats. Tracked but unguided, data taken in my backyard (bortle 8). Quick and dirty edit in Pixinsight/Photoshop...another difficult target to process. ABE, Crop, Background Neutralization, Multiscale Linear Transform, Histogram Transformation and Curves Transformation, ACDNR. Exported to Photoshop and did additional layering/curve stretching and levels adjustments, saved to .jpeg.

Revision was done following boodlewoodle's youtube video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ATxUM3OMhM

Next attempt I will stop the lens down.
