Hi Tyler, That is a very fun image. Scanning through the detail really blows your mind. I do have a question: In many of your images the diffraction spikes around the bright stars show a "dotted" pattern. What is causing this? With the LRGB images I had always assumed that it was part of the combining of the LRGB images but this one is H-alpha. Looking closer I wonder if it isn't a moiré pattern of the multiple images coupled with a small dither between images. Again very nice. Jerry Foote ScopeCraft, Inc. 4175 E.
