Very nice image too of course! |
Thanks Pete, as a parent of three now teen lads, it's a joy to hear them quoting Monty Python now - "No-one expects the Spanish Inquisition!" or 'Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam..."
Must rewatch The Holy Grail next family movie night - just have to FF Sir Lancelot's encounter with the naughty bits

Assuming you haven't altered it and from the full res version on AB, the amount of star distortion visible across the image is pretty minimal   ...I recon that amount could just be a function of the angle of the camera and a little flex and could change again depending on where you are pointing in the sky..?

Corpuscular, love it!
It's not quite the full field there Mike, I slightly rotated the focusser between filters, so had to crop off the corners on the repro - but there was a teeny bit of distortion that less spacing should clear up.

Thanks Matthew, I reached out first to a few users in the USA who gave it the thumbs up prior to shelling out the big bucks. You could buy a very decent small scope for what this thing set me back!
