There is a very faint area of nebulosity on the original jpeg image [Ed. or is this just an artifact of the lens/CCD? - qv. [url]http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap070629.html[/url]], which I have enhanced using AVIS FITS VIEWER ([url]http://www.sira.it/msb/avis.htm[/url]). My first image using this telescope - hopefully better images to come as I learn more....
<edit> Well, I've learned more.....vignetting I think is the term
