Cygnus Mosaic (final corner)

[Carole]

This has been a labour of love.  I am sure there is a lot wrong with it, but I have had enough of it now.

I have now lost track of the amount of data with the four panels and a few wasted attempts when the Samyang was orientated differently leaving bits missing. 
Edit: went back and counted the total time which amounts to:
15 hours and 17.5secs imaging time (not counting the wasted attempts)

You should be proud of that Carole, it looks fantastic.

[Roberto]

Great result Carole!  It's a great field with a lovely object at its centre.  I can share in your exhaustion at the mosaic work as I am finishing the processing of my 3x3 panel of the Veil Nebula...

Thank you Robert.

Here is one more version, using Starnet to control the small stars.  I have been trying to do this for some time but I could not get Starnet to install on my Desktop or my laptop, and results with Straton and Annie's actions made a mess of the Nebula, so this has been Starnetted by a member of Astrobin for me, and I have put the brighter stars back.

Am currently having one more attempt to install it on my laptop - watch this space.

I didn't like the final image when examined closely, so I have selectively applied Roberto Colombari's noise reduction method to it.   (See separate post on that method).

[RobertM]

I think you need a less distracting sticker in the top left - it spoils the image for me.

Fantastic!  As I said before, the colours are wonderful and the Crescent Nebula is highlighted really well.

It's an outstanding result!

However, I agree with Robert that the logo is a bit too distracting.

Thanks Mark I have amended my logo in my subsequent images.
