Rosette Nebula

[chuckp]

We finally had some nice clear nights in Oregon so I dusted off the equipment. I used the FSQ106 with the .073 reducer, ASI533mc and the Optolong L Pro filter. I took three hours of 30 sec shots. Bortle 7.

Nice to see you were able to take advantage of the clear but cold nights we have been experiencing. Nice results too.

Now back to your regularly scheduled clouds and rain

I am glad you some clear skies Chuck! This looks great, it's one of my favorite nebulas. Have you captured any sun images recently?

Thank Jim, yes I did take one in December, there were some high clouds, but I did get the shot

Chuck,

I'm sure nice for you to get out from under the weather and get some imaging work done. I have become used to your fantastic solar images but it is also great to see some deep sky. Your Rosette has lovely details and a very natural appearance with nice tonal ranges and detail. The solar capture is just mesmerizing (as always). Great job on both of these!

Thanks Mike, I did the Rosette a long time ago at a dark site with a modified Canon Rebel XT and the William Optics FLT 110. I also did it with the Tak in SHO in my backyard in Florida.
