Description: I have changed the filter to get rid of the IR halo around the brighter stars, and used a CLS-CCD vs simple CLS
I also artificially created the star spikes by placing two strings in front of the scope aperture. It is just an artistic choice, spikes seems to create the "wow" effects from friends and family
