Greg.

Thanks Greg. Almost. Couple of reflections I had to work on in the blue channel. You might see some traces of it in the pic. I used a M42 spacer as a small dew shield in the front of the lens threaded directly into the Fringe Killer 2" Baader filter cell and I think the light might have picked up one of the shinny edges on the inside of the spacer.

Thanks Clive. I use a combination of registar to align and build the panels then PS to auto-blend them. Prior to blending I discard the edges of the panels and try to keep the sharp bits where possible. This way the auto-blend feature makes masks accordingly and it is usually fairly seamless. The color balance might not be 100% true but I like it a bit hot hence emphasis on reds and saturation.
