Hello Paul,


They looking real good. Looks like you are set up for some real nice images when it gets even closer.

Hello Richard,


Awesome image.

I also sometimes use multiple alignment points and then construct the final image from the best parts. Time consuming but it works well when the seeing is poor.

Strange

They are not triangles. What appears to be the hypotenuse in the bottom figure actually bows up a bit, and this equals part of the differing area.

What appears to be the hypotenuse of the top "false triangle" actually bows in a bit, accounting for the rest of the area difference between the two figures.

If these were actually triangles then one could not really draw these figures.

I've deleted my math in this post, too much to type.
