Description

My first crack at Rosette Nebula. The moon was out, and relatively close, so the depth of the exposure isn't quite what I would have hoped. Overall, fairly pleased with the result, for a first try.

Canon 7D w/ EF 600mm f/4 L II lens, guided by an Orion SSAG. Integration of 30x210s, calibrated with 30x flats and 100x bias. Stacked with DSS. Edited in Adobe Photoshop CS6, using Astronomy Tools, GradientXterminator, HLVG.
