That's the worst feeling, @diana_king. I spent a whole week stressed before the follow-up test came back clear. It really makes you lose trust in the whole process for a bit.

Watched a video on stacking and thought it was just for people with too much time on their hands. Tried it myself last year on a shaky shot of Jupiter and its moons, fully expecting a blurry mess. The software basically glued it all together into something actually clear, which was a quiet but solid defeat for my skepticism. Now I spend way too many nights trying to fight atmospheric blur with math instead of just accepting a bad photo.

Totally, my shop says the same.

Watched my friend ruin a whole pot of tomato sauce with a reactive aluminum pot. The tomatoes got this weird metallic tang that was just awful. She only uses enameled cast iron for acidic stuff now.

My buddy swears by turkey necks for broth, they're dirt cheap after the holidays.
