Description

This is the first panel of a three frame mosaic of the NGC2264 and the Christmas Tree cluster. Since I have had no clear skies for more than a month and most of the first panel data, I decided to do the processing of the first panel upfront.

The used 10s and 120s LUM data combined as HDR LUM with Ha data added to the final LUM. The RGB data also was enhanced with SII, Ha and OIII data. This was using 2X drizzle integration and LocalNornalization in Pixinsight. This is really only the second full image I have processed with Pixinsight and I am still learning.

Comments and suggestions welcome.
