[APML] New image: Rosette

["Jeff Ball" <jeffball@netacs.net>]

Hello all,
Here is an image from Chiefland.  
2x 40 minutes hypered RG200 on TV101.

http://www.astro-photography.com/rosette.htm

Two issues for me on this were:

1.  The Rosette was very orange.  This is the first time I have seen
such a dramatic color difference from other images with the RG200.
Given, we were shooting in Florida humidity and through haze:-(  I
adjusted the red hue to come closer to common color renditions.  I did
not adjust the magenta hue for the webpage.  
2.  I am seeing random field curvature from shot to shot with the TV101.
This is my first outing with this scope.  My thoughts are that I need to
be doubly careful of having the camera square to the focuser tube.  I
probably rotated the camera for framing and did not quite get the camera
squared up as it should have been.  I will monitor this on subsequent
outings.  

Any other ideas or comments appreciated.
