Sharpless 2-282 (Sh2-282) HII emission nebula with Open Cluster NGC 2262 (lower left) in Monoceros.
Taken Dec 8, 10, 12, 13, and Dec 20, 2007 with a DSI Pro II with an Outback Cooler. Telescope used
was a C80ED operating at f6 with a WO 0.8x field flattener/reducer on an ASGT mount. The H-alpha
subframes were 10 minutes, while the GB sugbframes were 2 minutes. The resulting total exposures
were Ha:Ha:G:B (min) = 340:340:53:50. Color balance was achieved via numerically scaled channels.
Captured with Envisage, calibrated and sigma combined in Iris with other processing using FITZ,
PixInsight LE and Photoshop CS. North is up.
