But that being said its still a wonderfull image and lots of potential for his combo.
Thanks - point taken about the stars. I must try and do something about that.

Is this FSQ106N or ED?

Greg.
Thanks Greg. This is an ED. Yes - I wasn't that happy with the star sizes either. My blue data may have been slightly out of focus but there might have been some temperature effects. I think I've just about worked out the flexure so the next image should be better.
