Used canon photostitch to combine a pic of orion neb and a pic of running man neb. used images plus to even out backgound differences.

a lot of work has gone into this Phillip, however I think the colours could have come out a wee bit better, maybe some tweaking with image development and also some post processing in photoshop. If you still have the original IP file take a copy then have a go at reprocessing that within IP and then photoshop. in its current form they are very subtle

Thanks for the comments david ,to maintain the even background only a small amount of tweaking is possible . the main reason i attempted the stitch was to combine two images from my lx90 that are not normally in the same field of view and it worked quite well. the original pics were not taken on the same night and number of exposures of each was limited . canon photostich combined them in a click of a button.
