Heart of the Rose

NGC 2244. And I'm beginning to see why the DSLR will stay terrestrial and the QHY8 will replace it. This is 2 hours of NGC2244 with an hour of darks, 20 minute subs guided with an OAG and a QHY5. Still a bit of elongation in the stars even though alignment and tracking were spot on and an MPCC used as well. Scope is an 8" Newtonian on an EQ6.

Absolutely beautiful Peter. I never knew that this object was so large.
