Thanks Dan!

What setup are you using?

I do like diffraction spikes, especially on the sisters.
One thing I'm stickler for is making sure the camera is aligned square as possible.
For me it looks better if the spikes are square to frame.

Yep, no worries about using it for reference.
Never bothered with water marks, figure if anybody wants it it's a compliment.

Up your way again in January for my daughters 30th. I shall probably melt into a puddle with the humidity.

Cheers,

Justin.

Cheers for that - Im hoping to capture next new moon
Humidity maybe a bit more than what your used to, tho I was in Cairns for the 2012 eclipse and Humidity there some days puts SE QLD to shame Lol
