Description

This started out with a single centered frame with data captured from 17 nights in nov 2018 to march 2019. However I changed my mind because the crop was too tight from the small sensor. So I changed the project to a 4 panel mosaic with data captured during 30 nights from nov 5th 2019 to feb 13th 2020. In the end I decided to include the data from the first year, ending up with a 5 panel mosaic of 238 frames with close to 80 hours total integration time captured across 47 nights and two years. Lots of data, but with a difficult noise characteristics across the image. The four panels each have close to 5 hrs in each filter. The middle one overlapping (included with "average" in PI to use the statistics from all the panels) has 9.3 hrs in Ha and 4.3 hrs each in O3 and S2.

I planned to just do a SHO version, but got inspired from some other works here and decided to make two versions, one SHO and one with a more "natural color" look.
