Seriously though, very nice image Rick as always I agree with Mike's critique though.

Cheers, Marcus

Ta, Marcus. I agree with Mike too. I'll have to work on making my highly mangled stars from this set up look more natural. They do look much better than the original data though

Tony.

Thanks, Tony.

Thanks, Troy. I did cheat a bit by using a scope in Calfornia

Gotta agree with Marcus though. Send some clear skies our way you photon hogger.

Thanks, Marc. There has a bit of a photon drought in California too. This is data from last year that I'm still catching up on
