Red and green objects

    I have seen two of these now, this one and AGZ0004c3r which seems to have a similar red dot but in line of sight. Are these galactic or stellar?

    The latter. Actually they are foregroundstars from our galaxy. The weird colours and shapes you see are all optical artifacts due to imaging issues.
