Stacking Images for Greater FOV

Hi All,

I have a 14" goto dob and I tried to stack a number of images that I took on Saturday night to mosaic an entire image of M42. I tried the mosaic option in DSS because the FOV with a Canon 60d at prime focus is 48x32 arc minutes and M42 is approx. 85x60 arc minutes.

Anyway, after going through approx. 200 subs, adding darks etc, the result was crap...

Is there a trick to mosaicking images for greater FOV or is it just really hard to get right?

Thanks,

Duncan
