Ah, that's ok Eric, I thought you had used my image.

BTW why is your image reversed left-right, artistic license?
(Normally a two mirror scope, or refractor, flips the image upside down)
Best,

Thanks Eric. There is still a lot of globs there. Thanks for going to that trouble.
I don't know why it came out that way. I was imaging at 283 degrees and it was originally on its side. Not flipped either in processing. Just rotated 90 CW and cropped to suit.
