Shot as a mosaic of 2 vertical panels with 45 frames each, of course almost 120 were taken, but as it turned out there was haze and therefore had to discard the faint ones. And when stitching the mosaic, they produced such artifacts that everything had to be recalculated again. Taken back in September, approached it several times and everything into the trash. Now it seems pretty good.
