This is my first mosaic and it shows.
It wasn't well planned so it's a hodge-podge of sub-frames. Somewhere along the line black points got clipped and star colors got lost. What can I say, it was a learning experience.
Larger images and details are here:

The 'Largest Image' at the site is still only half size of the original.

P.S.
This Sunday morning I have corrected the color balance on the originally posted image.

Well,I'm sure your next effort will be great as far as a mosaic goes Dan.
As for the galaxy It'self,It's looking very nice.
