Description

I took a similar image a few years back when I was just starting out with my mono camera but with my first generation ZWO filter and it showed severe halos. The ZWO filters are much better now, but I got a set of Astrodon filter. I wanted to reshoot the mosaic with the new filters, but I didn't get the chance. I have also gotten better with mosaic processing. This is a three panel mosaic with 10 hours of data per panel. I am collecting OIII and RGB data to add to it later.
