Yep, Mars is currently in Sagittarius, just below and slightly east of the Lagoon Nebula (M8).
Nice shot.

BD, great shot. I am just curious if this is a vertical pano? If so, how many shots?

I am really dissatisfied with the internet's handling of dark's and blacks. The bottom part of this image will not translate as it is in PS. Arrrggghhh

The fix was should have been a simple gradient screen but even it only marginally translated correctly.

The Internet is limited to an 8-bit color depth and the sRGB color space.

If you use Photoshop to advantage, you're seeing the image in Photoshop with a 16-bit color depth and in the ProPhoto RGB color space.

If you use a regularly calibrated IPS display, most people looking at your photo here on TPF are looking at your photo with a TN, not- calibrated display.
Bear in mind, a vast majority of the people looking at photos here on TPF are not TPF members (usually at least 10:1).

And I do just that...just irritating is all
