Another Milky Way Mosaic

Yep, I guess there are a few of us tackling this right now.

Here is part 1 of my intended 4 panel mosaic.

Details on the page.....this setup is so much fun and really, really easy to do.
Well, at 35 asp, you can kick the mount and not get star trails. My PMX is not even that well aligned to the SCP!

Thanks for looking.

Martin

Using a PMX for a 50mm lens is like using a sledgehammer to crack a walnut isn't it?
This walnut is exquisitely well cracked however. Wide fields are just beautiful when they're done this well.
