The Rosette Nebula

This image consists of 70 minutes luminance data with 30 minutes of red, green and blue data. It needs a lot more data but clouds ruined that idea. Taken whilst at Ayers Rock Central Australia in January? 2016. Have only just processed as a muck around with such a small amount of data. And it doesn't look like I will be adding to that data set this season as the weather has been literally cloudy for at least three months...........

As always comments and advice welcome.

Even for limited data it still looks pretty good. More data will allow you to pull out some of the fainter filamentry detail, looking good though.

Good work, Mark. Nice, rich colours!

Nice one Mark. Looks like I'm not going to finish mine either.
