Have been torturing my head trying to read some publications on light diffraction. It seems that chromatic separation is a natural property of light when diffracted as each wavelength is diffracted slightly differently and hence chromatic effects are to expected after diffraction of white light.
I have cropped the image to examine the spikes more closely and it looks to me like a definite spectral continuum and I also noticed that the spikes actually consist of two bars side by side. Maybe this has to do with the width of the spiders.
Am learning to accept them and maybe it might tell me a bit about how good I can get my focusing.
