QHY9 and an 18 panel mosaic of Cygnus in narrowband colors

[hercule1939]

Hi,


After shot my three and eight panel mosaics from the nebulae of Cygnus, I started an 18-panel version, silly me...

Here is a final three band NB image of massive area, about 22 x 14 degrees of sky (The apparent size of full Moon will fits about 1230 times in this area.) The original resolution is ~15.000 x 10.000 pixels.

Hi and thanks,

I don't know about the free time... I'm kind of fast.

here is a closeup to show the resolution, not bad for a 200mm camera lens, I think.
