Most here probably know I'm not much for making pretty pictures but I was between regular projects tonight so just before closing the observatory I shot a 16 panel mosaic of M-45. I was kind of surprised at all of the stars visible considering each exposure was only one second long. I joined the segments using Photoshop Elements. Not something I plan on making a habit of but it was a fun experiment. I may try again just to get the stars I missed across the top. http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/temp/m45-01.jpg patrick
