Josh,
An excellent mosaic , gee you’ve poured some serious hours into this one ( don’t know where you scored all those clear nights , east coast has been limited for months )
Colour palette is pleasing
Well done indeed !!

Thanks Martin, I had a
very good night of clear nights over winter. So i used the opportunity to go pretty deep on a bunch of targets.

A great image just the same

You're not wrong! there is so much detail in the outer structures! I found it hard to balance the intense brightness of the Lagoon core while still retaining visible detail in the outer structures. The detail is still there, just subdued somewhat.
I'm sitting on at least a half-dozen different processing attempts in trying to strike that balance without flattening the image.
I've attached a stacked and processed image of just the "Puddle" frame which i'm reasonably pleased with the processing for, I was aiming to process the mosaic pretty closely to what I'd lucked into with just the puddle.
