Description

This image was taken through a Sky-Watcher Evostar 72ED and Hotech field flattener with an ASI1600mm Pro. The image comprises:

SII: 20 x 180s

Ha: 16 x180s

OIII: 20 x 180s

Total exposure time was just under three hours. The image was processed in Pixinsight and Photoshop.

I realized that I had previously imaged the Rosette in HaRGB and HOO, but never in SHO, so I figured I'd give it a shot. Unfortunately, weather and my neighbors' tall trees conspired to cut my imaging session short before I could get as many Ha shots as I'd wanted. Still, I like how it came out. Weather (and trees) permitting, I will try to get more exposure time in narrowband before I make the big move southwest.
