Description

This is the first serious image of an SHO/RGB image with the new WO FLT132. Picking the Rosette is of course the "easy" target. Nevertheless, I will take this image as another little trial to see how integration time will improve the overall image. This one used approximately 13 hours of integration time, goal is to get at least 10 more, maybe (hopefully) it can be 20 hours more. I started several different processing methods also to see which one would produce the most pleasant one, and I picked this one as the winner. I definitely enjoyed the details of the "monkey parade", not that it comes close to a recent IOTD. Other trials included as example no starless images for processing, which created too bloated stars (although if one is careful not too bad). Guiding was done with the multi star mechanism in PHD, average RMS was around 0.2, which is for me by far the best value that I have ever seen.

Enjoy another Rosette on Astrobin, but it is just a marvellous nebula that deserves it.
