A lengthy Rosette

Following M45 the Rosette Nebula in Monoceros had become well placed. This also fitted nicely in the field of the apo. It isn't very often my setting circles put an object precisely where needed in the field of the scope but in this case it did so I was snapping again with hardly a break after imaging the Pleiades. This ended up as one of my longer exposures as I clocked up 20 subs before deciding that a warm bed was becoming attractive. Details: Megrez 88 apo. 20 x 10 minute exposures @ iso1600 with CLS in DSS, FIV, CS2 & XAT.
