COMMENTS
Here's a mosaic of three images take with my C11 from my backyard. The focus is terrible for three reasons: 1) The seeing was terrible from my backyard. 2) The native focuser of the C11 really doesn't help - and that moving mirror didn't help either!. 3) In addition to 1 and 2, I didn't do a good job.

At a smaller scale, that's not apparent, but if you see the original image you'll see what I mean.
