Dear group,

I combined my individual efforts involving NGC 869 and 884 to produce a two-panel mosaic of this especially rich part of the sky. I slightly cropped the two vertical edges so as to permit for a reasonable aspect ratio between the two axes.

The result is available at http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-DSO-NGC-0869-0884b.htm .... anyone wishing to see the uncropped version an do so by clicking on http://www.perseus.gr/Images/dso-ngc-0869-0884-1500pix.jpg .

Further details at http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-DSO-NGC-0869-0884.htm .

Anthony.
