Description

The NGC2264 complex (H-II-region + open star cluster + dark nebula called cone) is located 2,500 LJ towards the constellation Monoceros (Mon).
Due to the january weather conditions here in germany, only a small amount of data was gathered, finally only narrow band data without any RGB. But hey, so be it. I tried to process the hubble palette, imho with loss of details, but finally i preserved this pic, i like the yellowish look. CS
