I can see the red carbon star beside Mimosa in Crux, but you've managed to pierce it with a diffraction spike!  But it is showing the red, whereas the bright orange star in the Jewelbox is anaemic ?
But you've made a good start to your imaging career!

Thanks Eric for looking
I don't know.I am very new to this.Has the blue colour got anything to do with the scope which is not an ED? The Jewel box was taken in my own backyard which is very light polluted.
As for the spike,I put a "false cross" in front of the dew-shield( two rubber bands on a icecream container lid)just experimenting

I like spikes.
