Description

My first mosaic! I did not realise how much time goes into one of these. Starting from optical distortions through to increased RAM needs for processing such images, I learned quite a lot bringing this image together.
I would've liked more narrowband exposure time, but this is all I could gather this year here in Belgium (at reasonable elevation of course).
I am quite pleased with the result however. The added resolution of the 2x2 mosaic also makes up a bit for the "only" 6h of narrowband data per panel.

I'd love to hear your comments on this one!
