Rosette Nebula
This is my first attempt at capturing the Rosette Nebula, also known as Caldwell 49 in the constellation of Monoceros. Using a full frame mirrorless camera, 70-200mm lens and a Star Tracker I was able to get this image from my back garden in Torquay, Devon, UK.
.
I had set up to capture 120 light frames but due to intemittent cloud cover and condensation on the filter I only came away with 50 subs so need to get some more when the weather clears again. Still, I am pleased with what I managed to get.
