Thanks guys for the comments.
Tonight I did a quick grab of Tycho using the same camera, (wound down to 0.001sec exposures!) to get a sense of scale.

Just caught up on the thread, fascinating! Love the work you've done so far, keep at it
Looks like it is getting pretty close to those two stars now

It has been a while between observatory sessions for me unfortunately, and my proxima project has stalled - thanks for keeping this up, it is great to see....

Update,

5 Plus years now on this little project.
I'm now easily potentially capturing photons that started out around
January 2013 on their journey.

Yep that is really cool Steve. A clear demonstration that some stars move in the night sky even over a short period of time.
