3 tiles mosaic of Rho complex

Hi,

This is a mosaic I planned to make since I began astrophotography 2 years ago.

Finally a few good nights allowed me to make this project.

There are 3 tiles, made with my trusty modified A7S and Samy 135 at f2. For the really first time, no light pollution filter was used here, the sky was really dark!

You can see in version B the spot where I have taken those pictures with mon second unmodified A7S (30 pictures of 15 sec with samyang 14mm stacked with SLS).

There so many DSOs, stars and dust.

100% done with Astro Pixel Processor.

There are some defaults remaining, but I'm quite satisfied with this result.

I hope you like it too.

Cheers,

David

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
