Lovely round stars. :)
Next step is to fix that vignetting by taking some flats.

im hearing ya nettie!
last month i tried the 'ol white t-shirt trick for flats....... but even they seem to vignette!
you have told me before how important they are...... maybe i need to invest in a light box, but i have no real place to store it
my wife already calls my astro collection "pats ugly things" ha ha!
