Hmmm! Focus is certainly a bit off but I suspect only a bit. I've tried a reprocess with Adoe CS2 from the TIFF produced by DSS and it doesn't show the same artifact. I guess I pushed something a biut too far in the curves. It's odd though and I'll watch for it again - if this darn weather ever clears long enough. Thanks folks.
