About this image

Two images from the same run with itel T24. One straight LRGB and the other a mono image stacked on Y4's main 'nucleus', enlarged and unsharp-masked. For no obvious reason the system decided to go away and do TWO focus check runs during the sequence, hence the bitty star trails! Perhaps a hint of something behind the 'nucleus' if I use my imagination......? Crescent Moon not that far away.
