Description

HOO image of Rosette Nebula. February 10, 2022.  H-alpha and O-III data extracted from L-Enhance filter image session by Sirl. Canon 400mm F2.8 lens on Canon full spectrum 60D.  169 x 30 sec.  Sky Watcher EQ6-R Pro mount. Tracking only, no guiding used. 9 day old moon nearby. This was my first attempt at making a HOO false color image. Examples of other folks work with this technique seemed to show considerable variation. I'm not sure how representative this image is of the technique, especially since I used a dual band filter with extraction of the bands in Sirl.
