Default ASTRO: My annual Barnard's Star update Now 2007-2012

I almost let it get past me this year as the weather was so bad it
wasn't happening. Finally grabbed some frames on a rather poor night.
Took a lot of deconvolution and other tricks to get stars to match.
Color just adds to the difficulty making the chore a massive pain. I
see now why nearly all such attempts are mono images. But I start with
color so will see it through. One frame each summer since 2007 taken at
1" per pixel. That's one hot rod of a star.

Rick,

glad you thought of it in time.
You managed the changing conditions very well.
