Last night, I tried my hand at the Rosette Nebula. Instead of the usual Nikon D5200 I had put on the Nikon D800 this time. The nebula has a large extension and with the crop camera the angle of view might have been too small.

NGC 2244 – Rosetta nebula

Of the 75 lights originally made, only 44 were ultimately usable. Due to wind and homemade influences, the remaining images were not accurate enough.
