Description

2 panel mosaic taken over multiple nights of the Cygnus region.

Acquired 2 separate SHO sets, 1 set for each panel, ~20 x 300s images  @ -10c & 100g, 1x1 bin, ~65% were usable.

Blink / Subframe Select, Calibrated (100 Dark, 60 Flat, 100 Bias), Star Aligned all images with PixInsight. Used the Normalized Scale Gradient for integration - this knocked several sub-frames out.  

DBE each frame for Sii and Oiii only, Star Aligned with Mosaic Union to generate template for Star Alignment, panels were 'matched' images to template with Star Alignment. Registered/'matched' panels were dnaLinearfit prior to GMM. Repeated the Mosaic Union to GMM to combine each panel to a 3 panel mosaic of each channel.

For Ha, Sii, & Oiii channels: Dynamic Cropped, SCNR, TGV, MMT (& duplicated the Ha here for the Lum), EZ Soft Stretch, StarNet for star removal, and Channel Combined Sii to R, Ha to G, & Oiii to B.

The duplicated Ha -> Lum was Dynamic Cropped, EZ Noise'd, Mask Stretched, STF Stretched, HDR, DSE, LHT, MMT, EZStar Reduction, and LRGB Combined with the PixelMath SHO image.

Image was Curves modified w/ masks, Resampled, and Annotated.
