Description

This is second mosaic from my recent vacation, It's a 6 panel rendering of the Cygnus region including the Tulip, Crescent, Veil and North American Nebula. This is the largest Mosaic I've done and I sued Spectro Photometric Mosaic to stitch it together. Again that is an excellent script. This is a composition of 4 images (Luminance, Ha, LPro and Lext) shot with a dual set up Askar 200 mm f4 and ASI 6200 MM and Rokinon 135 mm f2 and ASI 2600 MC. I stitched the mosaics together and then used star alignment to align the 4 base images. Each panel was 8 300 s subs and I think that was a bit too much for the star colors with the LPro filter so I ended up blending the LExt and LPro stars colors 20/80 to make sure Sadar, Deneb etc had color.

Given I was battling a big moon and crazy smoke haze I was really pleased with how this came out.

Thanks for looking.

John
