A Pair of Roses

I have not been able to image the Rosette Nebula since 2005 due to the
perpetual Idaho, USA cloud ceiling. This year, however I was able to image it from South Australia. Also I was able to image it in both broadband and narrowband.


Broadband:

Narrowband:

and a mouseover comparison:

Comments/criticisms welcome.


Remember, I am not a narrowband imager but I tried. Also, although the
luminance data in the LRGB version does tend to wash out some color,
if I reduce it you would not be able to see all the cool dust in the
lower left corner. That would be a shame
