Thanks Louie. Yes I thought as well at one stage of processing but it seems to be quite strong in yellow around the core like our galaxy is. I could pull that back a bit though.

No not sure what caused that but I tried a few times to correct it. Its evasive but I should be able to track it down. Funnily other data from another object taken same period shows perfect stars.

The stars almost look like a collimation issue or a pinched mirror. Could just be the processing though.
I think it was tilt from a packer doubling up. Its unlikely collimation or pinched mirror as other data is spot on.
The only change may be the mounting of the camera.Perhaps it wasn't square on its adapter.

In fact come to think of it I took the camera off and cleaned all the filters the next day so it must not have been squarely mounted on the first night. Pinched on the dovetail fitting it attaches with probably was the issue.
