Description

My first attempt at a mosaic, 2x1 RGB of Lagoon Nebula and Trifid Nebula.  I didn't do a great job of balancing backgrounds but it turned out pretty good for a first attempt ever!  I also have very little data on Lagoon, just been clouds and rain forever, it's low in the sky, and now it would be hidden by houses.  So I just went for it with what I have.

Description: Been learning how to get the initial mosaic created better, balancing each of the panels. So took this through another round. I also changed the processing a bit to simplify and reduce what is done but get similar results. Well, better results in my opinion!
