Description

This is my largest project yet. A 12 panel mosaic of the Cygnus region.  This was quite a challenge to put together. I had originally started by trying to use GradientMergeMosaic in PixInsight which I've had difficulties with before.  After several attempts using only PI I decided to look into AstroPixelProcessor since I had heard it had a pretty powerful mosaic tool.  Seeing what others had been able to do I purchased a license and I was blown away with the relative simplicity of getting a seamless mosaic.  

I think I may try grabbing broadband data to combine this with but not right now. I'd like to do a few simpler projects for now.

I've downscaled the image by 2 to reduce file size but I've also added the full resolution image as a revision.
