Around the variable star R Monocerotis
Field around the variable star R Monocerotis and the famous Hubble Variable Nebula (small in white). Surrounded by the Monocerotis I molecular complex, formed by emission, dark and reflection nebulae.
Almost in the center, NGC 2264 with the famous Cone Nebula and Fox Fur. The entire region is in the middle of the Milky Way and is home to ongoing star formation with several hot young stars in the Mon OB1 association. Around the Cone alone, there are dozens of YSO and T Tauri variables.
The blue reflection nebula envelops the open cluster Collinder 95.
The image is a mosaic obtained by placing two panels side by side shot in tandem with 300mm. Processed with Luminar 4, exclusively for color and contrast tuning and control.
