Christmas Tree Cluster LRGB
Here's my obligatory image of The Christmas Tree Cluster (NGC 2264), Fox Fur Nebula, and The Cone Nebula...just in time for the Holidays! This is an old Pro Data Set from December of 2020 taken with the CHI-4 scope that I reprocessed using all the new features available in Pixinsight.
Hope ya like it and Merry Christmas!!
