LMC in 3nm NII now with Three Panels

The new system has been adjusted to the point where any further minor correction would hardly be worth it. I would be chasing my own tail.

Collected some LMC data with the LMC fairly high.

Data 8x16 minutes in 3nm N[II]. Processed in a new way.

Large image 3MB. FoV 3.5 X 3.5 degrees.
