Great images as always, Tom.  May I ask what equipment that was imaged by,
and what the exposure was?  The image sharpness appears seeing-limited, and
not motion related.  That's got to be a tough shot.

had become, the video frames showed why it brightened. As the second and
third images show, it was not at its brightest when it was largest.
