Digital Image: The Rosette Nebula

Here’s our newest image from KPO – the Rosette Nebula. This stunning emission nebula can be found near the constellation of Orion. Still not perfect, but a huge improvement over the current shot I had. I started this sequence right after the observing session on Friday. Click on the image to the left to see the full size shot.
