M8 Mosaic in Foraxx Palette
Another object that would have been difficult for me to image at home. At this FL I needed a two panel mosaic to fit the entire Lagoon. I ended up with the Foraxx Palette as my HOO-SII version had the core too blown out. I may revisit this version in the future. The Foraxx palette really brought out the central blue of there OII data.
