Hi,

With all the imaging of comet Lovejoy, it left me with lots of frames with artifacts that were not wanted, sattelites iridium flares and fuzzy stars from a fogging lens.

Thought I'd process them anyway.

The iridium flare is nicely framed, looks a bit like the sword of Damocles.
Crux, fuzzy stars.
Thanks to Paul Haese for that idea.

Cheers,

Justin.

Wow, that's probably one of the best Iridium flare images I have seen. Good you didn't throw that frame away :)

Very nice Iridium flare! I really like it.
If I can make a suggestion I will try to make the image less purple.

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback.

Luis, your right about the purple, I'll have another go at that.
Can't say I noticed that until you pointed out.

Thanks,

Justin.
