Hyginus & Ariadaeus

Hi everyone,

This is a two image mosaic of Rima Hyginus & Rima Ariadaeus, along with a portion of Rimae Triesnecker from images I took on November 11, 2006. This was not meant to be a mosaic as you can see from the rotation of the Hyginus image due to my Alt/Az setup, but they still fit together nicely.
Meade 8" LX90 SCT @ f/25, DMK 21AF04 camera, each image is 400/2250 frames, 12 alignment points each in Registax 4, mosaic stitched together in Photoshop.

Thanks,
Ed Roach

Hi Ed -

Very nice to see these two rima and subtle connection between them. I'm glad you were able to join them together.

best,
Alan
