After tuning and re balancing my mount last Monday captured and hour or so on the Rosette after the cloud cleared around midnight. It’s been over a year since I imaged this target so happy to capture it before it disappears in a few months

Thanks Fred
Considering Rosette was descending low in the north west when I was imaging, guiding was a big surprise as well, the tightest this rigs ever performed and the detail for such limited data was pleasing after the first stretch, I said Wow too.
Not bad for a OSC with limited data
Thanks for your comments
Cheers
Martin
