Description

Here is my attempt at the Rosette Nebula, a star forming complex some 5000 light years from us.

I took this over several weeks in February to March 2023 using a OSC camera and Optolong L-eXtreme and 6.5nm Sulphur filter to get SHO narrow band data of the nebulosity. I also took RGB subs through a UV/IR cut filter for the stars.
