COMMENTS
I was attempting a mosaic that would include the Heart and Soul nebulas. Finally I abandoned the mosaic and focused only on the Heart, but still had a bunch of shots taken to the Soul nebula, badly framed as a single FOV - that's why you see the object is anything but centered, and a while later I decided to at least process it.
