Description

It is one of the panels of a multipanel mosaic I am planning to make in the vicinity of the Orion A and B molecular clouds. The data were already taken over two nights. I just quickly processed one of the panels centered on the Horsehead nebula to see how it turned out. Not bad I guess. The seeing and subsequently the guiding rms was terrible (~2"-2.5") due to heavy winds and gusty conditions by the devil Santa Ana winds. Need to work on the rest of the data for the final mosaic.
