Sharpless 132 as four panel mosaic

 I have originally published this four panel mosaic photo back in February 2019. I have added new data to it and generally reprocessed the whole thing, it's funny how much an old guy can learn in few years.

You can see the old version here: https://astroanarchy.blogspot.com/2019/02/sharpless-132-sh2-132.html
It's not bad by any means but new version reveals so much more. The central part of the mosaic is new data from autumn season 2024, it's better processed and has a better overall resolution due to new imaging setup
