LMC HiDef Mosaic

This is a "work in progress..." image, first part of a long term project. The goal is to build an ultra hi-def image of the LMC, with channels H-alpha, OIII and LRGB. The final image will have 5x6 tiles in all five channels. This is just the first 6 tiles (2x3) in H-alpha (about 24 hours of data). It will take me a couple of years work, for sure, but will post intermediate resutls as well. Equipment: AP167FLZ apo refractor, Apogee U16M, Astrodon Gen2 filters (3nm), and AP1100 gto mount. It is available in native resolution via the "view all sizes" flikr option.
