Wow Carlos! This is so cool! Love the 3D feel of it. I think the SHO palette is my favorite for the Rosette. It really brings some depth to it.

Carlos, this is a fabulous image, the best Rosette Nebula I have seen.

PS: in your opinion, is it worth getting the ZWO ASIAIR Plus WiFi Camera Controller ? I have been looking at controllers between this and the Air Pro, I really should have ordered it last year, now with supply issues, ZWO doesn't know when the next batch can be made.

Thanks

Thanks Oliver ! Appreciate your comments

I am not very familiar with the ASIAir products as it doesn't support the equipment I have but a few of my Astro friends have the Plus and reckon it's a big improvement over the Pro

Carlos, thank you. I will bite the bullet & order it.

Carlos,

Great job - fun to see this at a scale that manages to capture almost the entire nebula, to show the fainter streamers that come off the main core of the object.
