Description

M31 as shot from my back yard. I have always wanted to try a mosaic and the challenge was more than I thought, but the results turned out quite well. I am always open to feed back on editing and your thoughts on the project.

I process most of this in PI but the finer details of the nebula throughout M31 was brought out with masking and camera raw function in photoshop. 

The acquisition details are the totals of each Red, Green, Blue filters. Each panel consisted of 30-40 subs per panel per filter.
