i need clear skies and good seeing for the 18"!


Those are ghosts of just out of frame stars.

I should have mentioned that. There are two bright stars off the edge,
one yellow and one blue. Blue really does odd things with the ice in
the air. Normally a blue star that far off the edge wouldn't show but
it sure did with the ice. Then there was a faint red glow from it too,
It was very faint but slightly larger giving that red edge. I probably
should have cloned them out.
