Description

Another re-process. This one is from 2009. I had a smaller and less vibrant version here on Flickr, but was never happy with it,

so deleted it today and started over.

NGC 2264 Cone Nebula and Christmas Tree Cluster captured with Apogee Alta U16M camera and Takahashi FSQ-106ED telescope. Captured on January 31, 2009 from Comanche Spring Astronomy Campus in Texas.
