Enough rambling...... A nice image in the making. Can't wait to see the final result.
"should be", well, we shall see . The image is slightly croped. Yes, the 8" should give a good FOV, very WW images of M16 tend not to be so good IMO.

M16 or the woefull Mosaic?. The Mosaic registered fine, it was the gradients and different backgrounds that caused havoc, completely unmanagable, ive seen much better pics since (NGC3576), its in the bin already Punk, so there (but thanks for the offer )
