Hi Bob,you have the colours spot on,but something just does,nt quite sit right.Maybe the focus is a little off,and the tracking a tad off as well.

However a very good effort,which you will no doubt improve on.

Thanks Mick I agree I think my problem is a one of alignment I had to image over a lot of nights and I am trying to get the orientation of the camera chip the same every time I am working on getting that right it was not a great problem in the past with not having to collect data over as many nights but now it is I will try and address the problem the next time.
