I finally finished my m42 mosaic. I overlapped the frames a little more than I thought I did; but it's still got decent coverage. 11" SCT @ aprox f/5.5; st-2000/cfw-8 binned 3x3. each frame is R=G=B=100sec. 6 individual frames covered the nebulae and backround space, and another frame centered on the core for a total of 7 individual images blended in photoshop. may need some final tweaking, but it looks good on my monitor (1.8 gamma). Comments/tips greatly appreciated.
