Description

Finding my steps slowly in the photo editing I think this is my first photo that I am really happy with the result. With my very small telescope (WO 61) but with many hours of exposure I was able to capture a lot of details of the Rosette Nebula and with the processing of the material I was able to enhance them even more.

Thanks for visiting
