This is a truly terrible picture but I thought I'd post it anyway to see if anyone can identify the bird. I photographed it near Austin, TX last month.
I'm thinking it might be a scarlet tanager, but it doesn't look like the others I've seen before. It was a fairly large bird, even for a tanager.
I had to shoot it through glass and in low light so the image is really bad. -Kurt Horsley

Hi All,
I plan to add more data tonight for an M100 I shot the other day--just feel I need more on my lum. Question: how should I add the data? (I use AstroArt3.) In other words, if I align the two different nights separately to create two different masters, then combine those two masters together, is it the same as if I did one big stack of the individual frames? The former would be my choice since it makes aligning much easier (I'm shooting 30 second unguided, so it's a lot of subimages!) Also, if I were to make two masters, would adding be preferable to averaging the two together? Or is averaging okay, too?
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Larry

While stumbling to the kitchen to grab some much needed coffee something caught my attention out of the corner of my eye...

Realizing what it was, forgot the coffee and grabbed my camera!
