Fabulous!
Where can I find this technique described by Rob Gendler? Wish I could
afford ImagesPlus - but right now the well is dry!
Please email me directly at warpcorp_.at._swbell.net
Thanks in advance!

Subject: [digital_astro] Pleiades Mosaic
Hi group,
Here's a mosaic of M45 that I've been working on:
http://www.starrywonders.com/pleiadessmall.jpg
A higher resolution image can be found at:
http://www.starrywonders.com/pleiadeslarge.jpg
This represents a total of 30 frames requiring about 3.5 hours of
exposure, taken with the Canon 10D at ISO1600 (6 to 9 minutes per
exposure), through the LX90 at f6.3, autoguided with the STV/e-
finder. The mosaic was made with a total of 6 different sections of
M45 (each section is an average stack of 5 frames). The frames for
each section were processed as follows: raw conversion, adaptive
dark frame calibration, alignment, autograding, min/max excluded
averaging, and background compensation done in ImagesPlus; levels
and curves adjustment in Photoshop; final smoothing done in Pleiades
SGBNR software. Mosaic was constructed in Photoshop using the
technique described by Rob Gendler. Total processing time was
approximately 20 hours over a period of 3 days.
This was my most challenging processing effort yet. Hope you like
it.
