The Rosette Nebula, photographed on Provia 400 slide film, with three exposures totalling
102 minutes.  Telescope: Megrez 80 (original version), violet reduction filter, TeleVue field
flattener, piggybacked on a Meade LX200GPS 10-inch scope.  Autoguided with a Meade
LPI on the LX200GPS with f/3.3 reducer.  Guiding programs: K3CCDtools2 for 2 of the
3 exposures, and Guide Dog for the third (both worked well).  Made at Harmonie State
Park near Evansville, IN.  Photo by Daniel Johnson, Nov 14, 2004.
