Not sure what I'm really trying to say other than "this is a hard patch of sky to image well, and you've succeeded."
The giant mosaic seems a very challenging but worthwhile undertaking.
Best,

Thanks MnT and Mike. The image scale with my set up comes in at 1.64” px which is find for the average seeing at my location. Interesting observations with the OIII actually particularly with the fine images of this area posted recently which included the extra channel. Very tempting to add it in to the project with the risk of making it much more grandiose than originally planned. Funny how these things seem to grow
Cheers, Rodney.
