I like to share a recent image of the Rosette, taken with the STL11k and a 16" cassegrain in primefocus (Ha-R-G-B).
More details to the image and higher resolutions are found here:

Is this a Classical Cassegrain?

Incredible, Johannes. Your Rosette has it all: depth, smoothness, detail, and a rainbow of star colors. All this in 85 minutes of exposure time. Imaging at this focal length at f/3 has it advantages.
Congratulations on a beautiful image.
