Description

The RGB image is a 2-frame mosaic, taken on Mt. Ho-Huan, Taiwan. Each frame contains roughly 200 minutes of exposure. An additional frame of 111 minutes of exposure is added to the center.

The Squid is imaged with an [OIII] narrowband filter, containing 460 minutes of exposure, taken from the Waikoloa Village on the Hawaii Island.

Note on 20161101: I give up this image and give up improving it. Noisy. Stars are not sharp. Color is awful. Just bringing it out of the staging area and leave it as is. Data will not be used any more. A completely new version taken with a different camera is underway. This image will be deleted once the new one is ready.
