re: sharp vs soft frames, its possible that you had focus drift over the night as temperature changed or perhaps some dew.
you can definitely put the files up in drop box, if I get time I might have a crack.
Nah, the focus was perfect (I wasn't going to make that mistake twice in a row!). Some stars were elongated, or doubled like the mount had been very gently bumped. But I think Atmos has nailed it - it's almost exactly every 3rd/4th image.

As for what I don't like, well I dunno exactly. I'm fairly happy with it I guess. Maybe I'm comparing it to Ha images, or differently edited & filtered mono cameras, or vastly longer total exposures, but other shots I've seen don't look so... worked on, for want of a better term. But maybe it just looks that way to me because I know how far from the original TIF it is.

I'll put the necessary files in a Dropbox folder and will post the link here when they're all uploaded (will likely take a while, they're big files).
