Description

Well, it feels a bit silly to share this here after seeing so many great images but I decided to start sharing my dive into this amazing hobby.

For my first DSO image I chose the Rosette Nebula (NGC 2244).

- Imaged from my balcony in Frankfurt am Main (Germany, Bortle zone 5/6).

- I cannot see polaris from my balcony so I went for rough polar aligment and autoguiding with PHD2 to get 1 min subs (115 of them).

- Captured using a modded Canon 2000d (ISO 800) + 200 mm f2.8 L lens (set to f4) + the Star Adventurer startracker

comments are welcome! thanks
