Rosette Nebula for Valentine's Day


I'm not sure if I will be able to add color to my Rosette. I previously imaged this flower in H-alpha and been wanting to blend it with RGB data. But since it already middle of February, Monoceros is already transiting the meridian which means my camera might hit the tripod legs. So, when the group arrived in Buso last Saturday, my yearning to image it was overpowering in spite of the erratic weather. Here I made 21 frames of 3 minutes each and combine it with previous H-alpha image.
