Description

Widefield of NGC 2237 to SH2-280 / SH2-282 and NGC 2262

Near the constellation Orion I originally wanted to image the Rosette Nebula up to the Cone Nebula using my mobile setup. Said done: Unfortunately I had positioned the Rosette Nebula in the wrong picture corner with my Star Adventurer during the object search... But of course I didn't notice that until later. :-)

Happily, on the way to NGC 2262 (a small Open Cluster in Monoceros Constellation), the two weak emission nebulae SH2-280 and SH2-282 came along on the image. Of course there aren't too many details visible in the RGB data, but in difference to the H-alpha images the weak areas of the dark nebulae also show up here, which seem to connect everything with each other.
