Thanks Paul, it was Martins recent 60 hour image that had me curious about what a tight crop would look like, lacks the serious resolution of his image but it's not really comparing apples to apples

Thanks Tim,
I'm currently working on the wider field and I think late last night I figured out how to do it. Attached is the 284 subs which have been Max stacked (not average or median) to show all of the satellites, hot pixels but most importantly, reflections.
My original night was centred on NGC 2024 (Flame) but the two subsequent nights were on the Horsehead. The reflections move around a bit on either side of meridian, dithering and what could be considered a LARGE dither, different centre of image. Technically what I have is four images that I can use to remove select reflections from various parts of the image as they show in one stack but not another stack.
