Description

this image is a 2 panel mosaic with 2 hours of exposure on each panel. this was my first ever attempt at doing a mosaic of any deep-sky targets and it turned out to be a great success. I plan on doing a few large mosaics this summer and this bit of practice will make things easier I'm sure.
