    Hi Laurent and welcome to the Zoo

    You can find some good examples in this thread : http://tinyurl.com/GZartifacts.

    But usually stars are very round and have bright colors. Galaxies are usually fuzzier, like this one here. The best way to get a feel for it is to look at lots of images and ask questions !

    happy hunting ! 😄
