Description

What originally started as a single frame of the Witches Broom turned into a 4-panel mosaic of the entire Cygnus loop. There are about 5 hours per panel on this mosaic. I would like to complete the top the next time I have a clear night, which might be a while. For now, I am very happy with the mosaic I was able to make.
