... Although the images were taken as panchromatic filtered pics, and because of some UMSF friends personal requests, here is the colourized version of the mosaic (using multiple-layers colouring). Enjoy !

... and let me dedicate this mosaic to our UMSF forum "Cartographer-in-Chief" : Phil Stooke, who deserves so oftenly our congratulations for his work and for sharing it with us.
