Description

This photo is my first 2 panel mosaic. I reduced the resolution to 1/4 of the original.

Another remarkable thing is that I accidently captured an asteroid passing by while taking some of the pictures. It is shown in the zoomed box. The asteroid was first discovered in 2001 by an observatory located in the US. In the final picture the asteroid is not visible as the stacking process eliminates such objects.

Thanks for watching !
