Description

My latest attempt at the Rosette Nebula NB Foraxx Palette with RGB stars.
It took a month to collect the data for this project. The declared La Nina weather pattern is suppose to bring dryer, hotter and clearer skies for summer in Australia however its been the opposite.
I wanted to get more data but our astronomy club and most of the nature parks were flooded recently so I decided to go with what I had from my backyard.

Thanks to Russell Croman and his tools and Adam Block's website for making the whole processing phase of producing an image much more enjoyable. Their image inspired me. Astrobin link

I'm not sure how much more I will do this year as I have to study for a promotion at work but will take the opportunity to image from home when the nights allow.
