Description

Following the latest Youtube video from Astrobackyard published in that social medial on January 22th, 2024 regarding his shoot and processing of the Rosette Nebula, I've got inspired and decided to spend some time collecting, as well my pulling my data from the previous year, in order to have as much as integrated data as I can from this target, with the plus of put the stars in their natural color with stored data from some shots that I made for this kind of target, using two types of optical systems: The Celestron C8 + Hyperstar V4 and my trusted refractor from Vixen, the FL55ss. This was the results.

3h:25min = 41 x 300s (Astronomik 6nm SII) - F/1.9 - Gain 139 - Bin 1x1 - Offset 50 - Focal Lengh 390mm
7h:10min = 87 x 300s (Astronomik 6nm Ha) - F/1.9 - Gain 139 - Bin 1x1 - Offset 50 - Focal Lengh 390mm
4h:35min = 55 x 300s (Astronomik 6nm OIII) - F/1.9 - Gain 139 - Bin 1x1 - Offset 50 - Focal Lengh 390mm
2h:00min = 120 x 60s (Baader Red Filter) - F/5.6 - Gain 139 - Bin 1x1 - Offset 50 - Focal Lengh 300mm
1h:40min = 100 x 60s (Baader Green Filter) - F/5.6 - Gain 139 - Bin 1x1 - Offset 50 - Focal Lengh 300mm
2h:05min = 125 x 60s (Baader Green Filter) - F/5.6 - Gain 139 - Bin 1x1 - Offset 50 - Focal Lengh 300mm

50 Dark Frames + 350 Flats Frames + 50 BIAS + 150 Dark Flat Frames

The Moon was in the first night of acquisition, in the Waning Crescent phase at 12.5% of ilumination, in a Bortle scale of 4 (21.63 Mag/Arc.Sec)
