Regarding the above image, it is showing 90 Leo, 92 Leo, Mizar, and Alcor in the same field of view as a bunch of Gemini and Orion stars. No way!
For that matter, 92 Leo and 92 Leo are no where near Mizar.
The stars that I know are properly labeled are Mebsuta and Mu Orionis.
The image is a small section in the upper right corner of the total FOV of my camera.
The attached image is the camera field of view as shown by SkySafari Pro.

Oooh, thanks for this bug report!
I figured it out -- this image has a SIP distortion solution, and apparently the inverse-distortion solution is not one-to-one. I added a fix, so the next time I update the nova site this will be fixed.
Good catch!
