Description

A test image taken earlier in the year for working out mosaics with SGP. Taken with a 10" GSO RC and ASI1600MM-C.

It is evident that rotation of the camera is important when doing these, something I have to work out for net time. For this image, I took 3 images at each of the locations, then used the best one of each to stitch together. It then basically works out to be a 160MP image.

So when the Leo Triplet comes back around next year, I will definitely put a bit more work into it.
