Nicely done Robert! 8)
Do you plan on shooting the color channels to add to it?

Tell us a bit about your Star Spikes... how did you generated them? wink

Thanks for sharing, and keep it up!

Bob,
Really nice shot, and I agree with Ivan abou those spikes. Nice touch. Congratulations on the setup.
BTW, did you ever get to Cherry Springs and get to use the filters?
Regards,
Larry
