M78 2 panel mosaic
M78 2 panel mosaic
This is a 2 panel mosaic from the M78 Mosaic set here at Telescope Live with the CHI-1 telescope. It was a little bit of a challenge to process. I am tempted to book time for luminance on this.

Hi Scotty, this is such a huge challenge for me, I had to delete everything and just grabbed the latest CMOS data on M78 out of frustration. Can you please share your workflow? I normally use Astro Pixel Processor for mosaic stacking, and Pixinsight/WBPP for everything else. However, the Red, Green, and Blue Master lights all had white pixels all over the image as if small cells of data was missing. I tried Pixinsight, but since all the frames were dumped in one folder, I had to check each frame to determine which panel it belonged to, unlike before where TL had separate folder for each panel! However, wbpp gave me errors. Any help or advice would be truly appreciated, sincerely, Dave!
