I repositioned the scope a couple of times during the night but apart from that I didn't adjust anything. You can clearly see in the animation the change of direction of the movement and the shift in focus that I hadn't noticed before. I've added a comparison of a crop of 4 shots. The first two on the right are of early in the run, the 3 is halfway through and the last is the final shot. There is a noticeable difference in the focus. which i don't think has to do with seeing.

BTW this is Cent A from 19:30 to 22:00 (Alt 42 deg - 70 deg approx)
