The frustration is that the sharp stars across entire field is not reproducible.
The STXL11002 is a heavy CCD and flexure is unpredictable.

Your 'natural looking' methodology to processing should make this a stand out, though M20 does look good with a lollipop level of saturation. Your set up has framed it very well, with 'space' around the main feature. Hope the skies clear soon so you can complete the mission. Well done.

Thanks for your ever concise comments Jase.
