looking at it more critically this morning, I don't think I hit the focus spot on. It must have shifted a little, as I used the Bahtinov grabber to get it just right. It also really needs some flats which I will do maybe later today with the old white t-shirt trick (I have kept the camera attached to keep everything the same as last). The trap is burnt out also - will need to get a few short exposures to blend in - another learning curve.

Its a work in progress.

It was Einstien who said everything is relative, I'm using an spc900 webcam with a 10" dob and no tracking so believe me.... that pic is awesome.

As for the lines at the bottom of the pic it looks like a software problem to me, Do they appear in any other shots with the same gear?
Are they present in your captures before processing?
You should be able to narrow it down by swapping your gear around until you find the culprit.
Let us know how you go and keep posting those piccies, It gives me something to aspire to.
