"The Galactic Rose"

My recent work in Monoceros- NGC 2237 The Rosette Nebula

This two panel mosaic highlights one of the most beautiful regions of the night sky. Each year I chase it across the northern hemisphere, racing both time and weather and as it sets to capture it's beauty.

Until next year!

Before going out to photograph the Perseids meteor shower I checked Heavens Above and noted that an Iridium flare would appear in the constellation Orion.
