I've gone and started from scratch again and I'm happier with where it is now. There was a blue gradient that was swamping the top of the frame and that has been removed to now show all of the fine dust... There is almost no part of the frame that doesn't contain some amount of dust! Feel like getting at it with a vacuum

I was both happy and not quite so happy with the colour but I am much happier with the new version

Every panel is 5x300s at ISO400 so 75 subs in total or 6.25 hours of exposure.

A most enjoyable view squire, very nicely done

I knew there was some gradients that I wasn't overly happy with but I think in the new version those gradients have been eliminated and now we're left with just how dusty this regions really is!

At full resolution it should be printable at 3x3m at 300 DPI

I'm still trying to figure out the best way of forming a mosaic but I feel like I'm slowly getting there

It is a great patch of sky with numerous bits that can be imaged all on their own.
