The Garden of the Gods - a sneek peek

[dvj (John)]

Here's a sneek peak at my big H-a project in progress. As you can see, it gives you a real sense of scale on these objects.

Proline 16803 and FSQ

Why yes, full resolution! I expect the final image to have no less than 30 segments. What I did not show in the mosaic is RCW 114 SNR that also fits into the field.

Let's see...... my PC specs are:

HP Phoenix H9
Intel x79 chipset
Intel Core i7 3960X clocked at 4.5 ghz, liquid cooled
Nvidia GTX 680
32gb DDR3, quad channel
Dual 320gb Intel SSD drives

While I don't think you need this much PC over-kill, my processing is quick to say the least.

A great start on an ambitious project, John! Look forward to seeing more.

Outstanding John, are you going to mosaic the whole southern milky way?
Real deep, I can't wait to see it completed!
Welcome back in Coona

Clear skies

Sir,

That makes my head hurt knowing how much work is involved.

I'm yet to finish my 8-panel Rho Ophiuchus, and, that's hard enough as it is!

This is going to be out of this world awesome.
