Hi all,
I hope this is the proper place to ask this question.
I have this strange blue ring around the red-ish small star in the center of the image (NGC7822, taken on 2025 02 26 with a Askar 103mm, optolong L-ultimate & Zwo 533mc Pro).
First image is the stack, with photometric color calibration & MAS, second is more processed and annotated. I couldn't find anything about the star or ring on stellarium, Pixinsight annotation or Astrobin, where it isn't there on any image.
I would really appreciate if anyone has info on it or suggestions where to find that information. I find it strange that it would simply be an optical imperfection, as the other stars around it are fine.

The compression hasn’t been kind, it’s much more visible than that. The star is Gaia DR2 528554519584767744 according to Stellarium.
