Is it an ACF scope you're using Allan? It seems to me that while the stars are quite tight in the center of the image the stars towards the outer edge of the fov (especially the brighter ones) are all flaring towards the outer edge of the frame.

Your right, the stars are slightly elongated and I think it comes from the last set of Luminance frames as the mount was approaching the meridian flip.. The initial frames were perfect in star characteristics. I may have to cull some of the frames and do a ...........Sidonio!
Also the colour is not quite right. But I was lucky to get a clear night so I was happy with that.
The scope is an old bog standard SCT from 1995, but I love the optics as there is very little focus shift and if I went out tonight it would still be in perfect focus.
