anyone know what the "saturn" like object is to the right of the galaxy, above the bright star?
all the stars have the fainter spike vertical, but this one is horizontal.
were the diffraction spikes added on?

That's a small side-on galaxy just above the star. He's resolved a galaxy a few arc seconds from a bright star. That's how good this shot is (and his optics). The faint vertical line I'd suspect are from the NABG ST-10. The other 4 are from the spider vanes.
