Thanks Les, and congratulations Mike - this is a top shot and is perhaps the most realistic celestial smiley that I've yet seen!

Thanks guys, I really appreciate your feedback.
It's very exciting to be featured on APOD today. I've received loads of encouraging feedback from people around the world and it's humbling that my image has had such a positive effect on them.
Oh and the stats on my blog look very nice. It'll be a nice blip in the radar for quite some time. 
Thanks again.

Hello, funnily enough, this is one of the pictures to which I made the comment: "Hey Mike, you could travel around the world taking pictures...blah,blah... 
Looks like you don't need to mate!
Congradulations!
