Mosaics?

Hi Folks,

I'm just starting out on my first mosaic, and looking for suggestions, tips & tricks on the process to make tricolour NB images of large objects.
For my first go I've attempted a nice bright target ie: Eta Carina, and this is just two panels on my SV70T, with rough post-processing only.

I tried Photomerge in PS 2017 but it aligned my 3 NB file sets out of register.

Then I found Sara Wager's tutorial and using MSICE very helpful and easy.

What's best, do you merge the files prior to stretching? If so in what format do you load them in the package?

All input welcome, thanks in advance

Cheers
Andy
