The unlikely match

I shot two targets, on the 1/5/2021 I shot the Gabriella nebula 28 shots 10min each between clouds and was no even to make it here it was a simple trial. On the 2/5/2021 I shot 49 shots 10 min each on the main part of the Carina nebula also as part trial but it did turn out very well. they where never planed to go together just two different targets on two totally different nights and one never meant to see the light of day here but made my back ground for a day on the computer.

I edited the two shots a day apart as individuals It was not till I sat back and looked at the two shots that I knew they would go together. there was so much detail and enough of an overlap. kind of a shame I did not set it up from the first place right.

PTGui stitched them straight up with not one bit of help from me. I do look forward to setting myself a real mosaic I have no fear of not getting the shot right. It has always been PTGui that I turned to to do the Milky way Bows for the last 5 years.

thank you I regret not thinking ahead more but it would have been a 4 shot mosaic to get it altogether as one shot and I would never have had the night in a row to get it. It does give me a very good idea just how easy it is to do though putting it together. finally getting the shot I was after in the first place.

I will do one properly this was never meant to be but too good not to share. That opens a whole new box of worms.

This is so big if you are out in the very dark skies you can see it with your naked eye but it about the only one you can see by eye. truly fascinating hobby , many thanks.
