Description

This is my closeup of the Rosette's central region--probably my last pass at it with the C11, which will be put out to planetary and visual pasture soon when my new CDK12.5 arrives. Normally, I would remove the magenta with SCNR right after stretch, but I found that in this case, it really dulled down the image and actually destroyed a great deal of detail. So here it is in all its raw SHO glory with RGB stars.
