Description

This was a project two years in the making. This is a four panel Mosaic of the M8/M20 region of Sagittarius in narrowband processed as the SHO Hubble Palette. Each panel was 5 hours per filter with both 4 minute and 30 second frames combined with HDR to protect the stars. I have very limited view to the south so that I could only acquire data for about 3 hours per night and I could not complete the data in one season.
