Very nice work JJJ, my only criticism is on the stars appearance, perhaps a filter applied on size reduction (minimum?) gave them the strange look, I would try to recover a bit of the original "gaussian" light curve on the stars

Nice work Jeanette,
I never knew about the Canon CDS1100D till now.
see link:

That's an interesting solution for astrophotography.
What exposure times did you use & how many?
cheers
Allan
