Pretty though
Hi Paul. I've just been checking the individual subs and the reflections are identical shapes and in identical places in each sub BUT while all the Horsehead subs have the reflection in the same location, all the M42/43 images while having their very similar reflection in the same shape and place in each sub, they are, curiously, on the horizontal opposite side to those in the Horse subs - a 180 degree horizontal flip but, as you'll appreciate, hardly any real OTA movement between the 2. I just received a nice new Astrozap heater/dewshield today that I didn't have when I took these images so I'll try again when the weather allows and see what is happening here.
In the meanwhile, your thoughts very welcome.
Peter
