Jim, the night weather conditions here in flyover country range from sucks to really sucks. The only "target" I've had the last two nights is watching the Astros getting beat by the Nationals in the World Series.

Kathy, if I captured a close-up image of the "heart of the Heart" half as nice as yours, I'd be really ecstatic! Very nicely done.

It looks really nice - I love how your diffraction spikes come out - it's almost like a flower rather than spokes on a wheel if that makes sense...
