This is such a stunning region of the sky!!
This six panel mosaic with 9 hours a panel and total 54 hours, was Imaged in LRGB on the RH 350 at Observatorio El Sauce, Chile

Image data acquisition and mosaic preprocessing in APP: Mike Selby at throughlightandtime.com, many thanks to Mike for his wonderful skills in both acquiring and creating this mosaic. 

The mosaic was then processed by me using Pixinsight and Photoshop. The original image was huge, and I had to downscale it down for astrobin!
