Thanks for the superlatives. I have been trying to get a decent mosaic of this region for about three years. This is not an overnight success!

I can do better than that Alex.
Here is a high res Map with image superimposed with RegiStar. 3.5 MB

Colour gradients are the main problem I have with widefields and it is even worse with mosaics. Narrow band gets me the dim stuff without any colour gradients and normal one shot colour gives me the star colours and brighter bits. The trick then is to combine colour and NB and still look 'natural'. I have figured out a completely new method.
