Equipment Details:

Canon rebel 500da, Sky watcher star adventurer, 75-300mm lens, and Ha filter.

Post-processing Details:

This is an HaRGB composite image, which means I took to image sequences one with the filter and one just RGB without filter, those were then combined in photoshop.

Image Details:

My first image of the Rosette Nebula! This is a really beautiful target to image in the winter located around 5000 light years from earth in the constellation of Monoceros. Hope everyone's been having plenty of clear nights lately!
