Hi Bob,

Thanks for the kind words.  No, I seldom use a tripod.  I do use a monopod 
with the 250 Telyt.

I have never learned to work with layers.  In this case, I stopped down to 
assure that all parts of the image were in focus.  Most of the time I shoot 
at f/3.5 with this lens, and the hexes are not there.  I cloned out one 
bright one, but they don't really bother me that much.
