[Atmob-discuss] milky way picture

[George Roberts]

I made this mosaic today.

I took these pictures from Maine back around 1985 on negatives.  Recently I had 
about 5000 negatives scanned and so now that they are digital I used software to 
connect them.  North american nebula is that red nebula a little left of center. 
The coathanger is very visible in the dark rift a bit right of center.  Cygnus 
the swan is pretty much centered flying to the right.  Hard to pick out 8 stars 
of cygnus amount thousands.
