well, here it is, my first mosaic, taken last weekend with the 350d and 2x barlow through the ED80. mosaic of 4 images, stitched together using autostich.
my processing was as follows:

Picasa2:
Greyscaled and exported at maximum quality

Autostitch:
stitched at maximum quality

PS CS3:
smart sharpen
curves

feel free to comment and mess with the image, i'm happy to provide originals to anyone that wishes to mess with them.

enjoy!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing to mess with, Josh! It is a fantastic image!

The focus is tack sharp, contrast is spot on and the detail is incredible. Well done mate!

thanks guys, i think i need to work on the presentation of the image, get a style that works for me, and work on the post processing, but i agree, not bad for first serious try at it.

I am not a moon person. I don't like it -I don't like it at all.

But that image is very impressive.

Well done Josh!!

Appalling subject matter but a good image. How do we go about banning this subject?

thanks guys, weather holding out this weekend, i'm going to try for a HDR mosaic of the moon

I like it. A lot of fine detail on an item which is decidedly dificult to image at this size. The stitching has worked really well. You should be proud of this one.

Lovely image Josh, I always enjoy your images. You certainly put the effort in and it shows.
