Thanks Greg.
Downscaling highres images always look the part. so it's easier.

Thanks Mike.
I used the

I had to get the biggest overlap possible that's why it's so thin. See originals
here and
here.

Thanks Paul.
Ermm... not really. Maybe later on. Got too much new stuff to play with. Getting an AO soon so I think I'll be doing a lot of prime focus for a while trying to figure out bits n' pieces.

Thanks Craig.
Yes it wasn't a planned mosaic. I had two individual shots (see originals
here and
here) then I saw one of bert's mosaic of the same area and realised I could stitch them... somehow

Agree with Craig, whilst the field is spectacular, it needs to be composed a little better. But, then again, this is just the start of your multimarcmosaic. Looking forward to the finished product -- if this is anything to by, it'll be astounding.

Thanks H.
Yep - you're absolutely right. Levels and dynamic range are not the same and Eagle side is less contrasty than the Swan as a result. Also those shots weren't calibrated because at the time I hadn't figured out flat fielding with the hyperstar, so had to deal with gradients in the originals. Now I have everything sorted out I should be able to do proper mosaic. No more excuses.
