The Rosette Nebula
About this object
The Rosette nebula in the constellation Monoceros is an area of hydrogen emission surrounding a star cluster NGC 2244, located near the center of the nebula.
This image was taken with a 70mm refractor and QSI 583 camera with Astrodon 36mm LRGB filters along with a 36mm Astrodon 5nm Ha filter.
The narrow band data was combined with the LRGB data in PS CC using spectral mapping.
