It’s been awhile since I last shot deep sky objects and here’s a HaRGB of Cone Nebula (NGC 2264) to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! NGC 2264 is sometimes referred to as a Christmas Tree Cluster. Fox Fur Nebula and Snowflake Nebula are also visible in the image. Total imaging time: 7 hours.
