The bright "star" to the left is Jupiter who was passing through the region at the time.

Processing was very tricky on this mosaic since transparency varied a lot inbetween imaging sessions.

Kamera: Canon EOS 6Da

Mount: Skywatcher EQ3 Synscan

No guiging

Images: 420x 60s @ ISO 1000 per panel (of wich about 30% where used)

Lokation: Hakos Astrofarm Namibia

Processing mostly done in PI

Hope you like it!
