Description

A two-panel mosaic covering the Flaming Star and Tadpole nebulas in the constellation Auriga. This is an HaRBG image with Ha added both as luminance and to the red channel (also added a bit to the blue).

My first mosaic which was quite the learning experience in the processing stage especially. I've processed this 4 times to get it to a place I thought acceptable. John Murphy's scripts for mosaics and associated notes were especially helpful.
