Hi Peter,

Totally. It can be quite frustrating at times. I should have cleaned the stars up a little more to be honest. I delete at least 50% of my subs. The seeing has to be very good to keep focus at F11.

Sure mate, you can view a larger version here

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'll hopefully get enough data for another one shortly.
