Description

Wide field view of the Rosette Molecular Cloud in narrowband.  The cloud includes the Cone Nebula region, the Rosette Nebula and the Monoceros Loop SNR 205.5+00.5.
To the right, south, are Sharpless objects 280, 282, 283, and 284.  Just north of 282 is the blue SNR G211.7-0101.
Images were recorded using Antlia dual band filters Hydrogen-alpha/Oxygen III and Sulphur II/Hydrogen-beta.  The four emission lines were algebraically extracted from the overlapping passbands of the RGB filters on the ASI2400MC pro sensor.  These four images then combined to create a full color image using H-alpha and H-beta as red, SII as yellow, and OIII as blue-green.
