Grus Quartet ZWO ASI 071

First ever mosaic turned out ok. This mosaic is 2 panel. Had a few issues trying to blend the 2 panels together. I guess its easier on a monochrome camera to do mosaics?

The Grus Quartet (NGC 7552, NGC 7582, NGC 7590, and NGC 7599) are four large spiral galaxies, in the constellation Grus, that are physically very close together and strongly interacting. The high starburst activity of two of the members, NGC 7552 and NGC 7582, is also thought to arise from tidal galaxy-galaxy interactions and subsequent formation of a bar in the disk. Several tidal tails are visible extending from NGC 7582.
