Rosette redux

A reprocess of www.flickr.com/photos/124244349@N07/51786194929/in/datepo...

 

The Rosette Nebula is a fairly large structure to the east of Orion's shoulder. The significant H-alpha content makes it a fine target for imaging from light polluted locales like the New York City suburbs.

 

I have not been very meticulous with this reprocess as I'm just getting my bearings with some new features of PixInsight before teaching Urban Astrophotography starting next week for New York City's Amateur Astronomers' Association.

Tech Stuff: Borg 71FL/Borg 1.08X Flattener/ZWO ASI 1600MC Color cam/IDAS LPS V4 nebula filter/iOptron CubePro mount, unguided. 2.5 hours of 8 second exposures captured in SharpCap livestacks, processed in Pixinsight and finished with ACDSee GemStone 12. From my yard in Westchester SQM-L 18.8 (red zone Bortle 7).
