Dear friends,

Many heartful thanks for the good words. The full-blown original (1200x1600) looks equally as impressive. If anyone is counting, we have 3209 stars ... Seanie, can you please confirm for us? :P

Great image Anthony!! Looks like the starfire is working wuite nicey!

BTW, for the crosshairs on the stars, were they added in processing or did you use a device over the objective lens?

Thanks Michael. Dave McDonald is on the waiting list for the same. Hopefully he will get the call soon.

BTW, for the crosshairs on the stars, were they added in processing or did you use a device over the objective lens?

I added a cross-hair pattern using some string. I did some testing where I took photos with the cross-hairs in a cross pattern ("+") as well as an "X" pattern and leaned towards the latter.
