RE: [APML] Another milky way mosaic

["Thomas W. Earle" <twade@bmi.net>]

John,

That's awesome!  

Just in case you missed it, Wei-Hao takes a single wide-field shot
of the mosaiced area.  It makes color balancing and flat-fielding so
much easier.  I plan to use his technique on my next mosaic (a nine
frame shot of Cygnus using the Pentax 300mm F/4.0 EDIF).  I find the
most difficult part in creating mosaics (outside the digital work)
is in composing each frame, ensuring there is enough overlap.  Do
you have any suggestions or techniques you would like to share?

Wade
